Friends of Waterfront Seattle is the non-profit partner working with the City of Seattle to reconnect our city to its central shoreline with a 26-block park from Pioneer Square to Belltown. The park features a 9-acre central public space, a landscaped Overlook Walk connecting the Pike Place Market and Seattle Aquarium, and many other amenities. The park is designed to celebrate Seattle’s identity as a waterfront city by reuniting us with our waterfront and providing new cultural spaces for locals and visitors to enjoy.
In collaboration with the City of Seattle, partner organizations, and the community at large, Friends of Waterfront Seattle is responsible for:
- Building awareness for Waterfront Seattle and the profound impact it will have on the city and region
- Raising $80-$120 million in capital funding for the park from philanthropic sources
- Stewarding the park long-term through maintenance, security, and programming
