What to know before you go
- 01
It's free and run by the Seattle Art Museum, about a mile north of the museum itself. At nine acres it's downtown Seattle's largest green space.
- 02
A Z-shaped path about 2,200 feet long zigzags from the PACCAR Pavilion at the top over Elliott Avenue down to the water. The path and the waterfront walkways are wheelchair accessible.
- 03
Look for Alexander Calder's The Eagle, Richard Serra's Wake, Jaume Plensa's Echo, Louise Bourgeois's Father and Son, and Mark Dion's Neukom Vivarium.
- 04
At the shore there's a small pocket beach and a tidal garden built for salmon, with views across the water to the Olympic Mountains.
- 05
Don't touch or climb the sculptures, and walk bikes, scooters and skateboards. Dogs need a six-foot leash, and only service animals go inside the pavilion.
- 06
The pavilion has the seasonal Birdie Bar for food and drinks. There's a paid garage at the park's southeast corner, at Broad Street and Western Avenue.
- 07
The park runs straight into Myrtle Edwards Park and Centennial Park, so you can keep walking north along the water.
Check the Seattle Art Museum's site for current park hours, the pavilion and any closures before you go.
