Seattle's newest waterfront public space has finally opened

Thanks to a partnership between the City of Seattle and Friends of Waterfront Seattle, Seattle’s newest waterfront pier has finally opened.

Pier 62, located on Seattle’s future Waterfront Park, is a “revitalized historic pier offering flexible, active community space.”

It’s being promoted as a cultural hub of the waterfront, which bridges Pike Place Market and the Seattle Aquarium with space for activities and sweeping views.
