Category Overview
Washington is famous for its gorgeous and abundant waterways, from the Salish Sea to the Nisqually River, but many communities lack open public beaches and waterfronts where everyone can enjoy picnicking, swimming, paddling, boating, and angling. Water Access projects fund public shoreline access, boat launches, and fishing docks to create more opportunities for water recreation.
Project Highlights
This project is the acquisition of a parcel adjacent to Fairview Avenue on Seattle’s Lake Union. The City plans to establish a small waterfront park with a garden area, interpretive trail, viewpoints, picnic area, and wildlife preserve.
