🌿Discover the breathtaking NATURE Pedestrian Bridge, nicknamed Overlook Walk at the Seattle Ocean Pavilion! The USA’s first nature-based pedestrian bridge & stairway—it seamlessly connects visitors to the famous Pike Street Market to the Seattle waterfront and Seattle Aquarium while allowing vehicles to pass freely below. It used to take 30 minutes and dodging cars to get from one spot to the other and now you can do it in minutes and the traffic still flows!

According to Mayor Bruce Harrell, “Waterfront Park, particularly Overlook Walk, will be a dynamic landmark that honors our past, highlights Seattle’s spirit of innovation, and welcomes everyone to experience the city’s natural beauty and vibrant culture. This once-in-a-generation transformation represents a powerful reconnection of space and people, as visitors, residents, workers, and families will enjoy seamless connections between downtown, Pike Place Market, and the entire Waterfront Park—the entryway to our region.”

The “on structure” green infrastructure project included our innovative Intensive Sloped Vegetated System (drainage/filter layers, intensive growing media, sloped system). It helps prevent stormwater runoff from entering Puget Sound. We also provided custom tapered geofoam as lightweight fill, designed to minimize waste during installation and protect the surrounding environment by not cutting foam in the field and into the water.

If you're in Seattle, this lush, green destination is a must-visit!
