Friends of Waterfront Park

Seattle's Waterfront Park continues to draw in more visitors, with a record 7.5 million last year. The addition of new bike lanes, events, and Overlook Walk have made it a popular spot year-round. At Friends of Waterfront Park, we're focused on keeping the park safe, clean, and welcoming for everyone to enjoy. #SeattleNews
