2. GUIDING PRINCIPLES
The following guiding principles were created by a group of citizens working with
the city and adopted by the City Council (Resolution #31264), to capture the key
civic goals and objectives that should shape the creation of new public spaces
The vision for the waterfront should clearly define how the waterfront will take
The waterfront should engage the entire city. It should be a place for locals
shape and the essential character of key elements. At the same time, the vision
and visitors alike a place where everything comes together and co-mingles
effortlessly.
7. Develop consistent leadershipfrom concept to construction to operations.
2. Put the shoreline and innovative, sustainable design at the forefront.
The waterfront will bring people to the waters edge to experience the water
vision. This leadership needs to ensure design excellence and root the process in
and ecology of Elliott Bay. It will improve shoreline ecology while preserving
Seattles commitment to

Northwest.
HABITAT The waterfront is also habitat, and many people connected to the idea of
opportunities to interact with and see in-water and upland habitat, and create a
shoreline edge with access to beaches, tide pools and places to walk and sit along
the water.
ARTS AND CULTURE AND ENTERTAINMENT To activate a public space, it must
attract activity, including places to eat, drink and picnic, outdoor concerts, street
markets, festivals, cultural celebrations, and large and small performances. This
could also mean showing artists at work, and including art that is interactive
and evolving, both temporary and permanent art to create a more dynamic
environment.
We also heard valuable feedback on what the design should avoid, such as
connect with many people. Whether its elevated views simulating current views
structures that block views, too much roadway space, or retail that doesnt feel
from the Viaduct, or opportunities for reviews between the historic piers - the view
authentic to Seattle. This input, as much as what the public wants to see, was
In addition, comments not only highlighted the kinds of spaces that people want to
see, but also the spaces they already enjoy such as Pike Place Market, and parks

BICYCLES
An important City goal is to increase the rate of cycling among residents; the
waterfront provides views, atmosphere and opportunities for activities that make
it a location that can appeal to casual recreational cyclists as well as faster
moving riders. To appeal to the broadest group of users which includes families
and people who currently arent comfortable biking in an urban environment it
is necessary to provide a design that includes some type of buffer, or separation
between the street and bike facility.
The central waterfront design includes dedicated north-south bike facilities that
will link seamlessly to the Citys broader bicycle network. The proposed bike
path will connect with the Elliott Bay Trail to the north and south, and provides
a buffered facility that can be enjoyed by a wide segment of riders. This may be
supplemented by the addition of sharrows or in-street bike lanes for the more
confident enthusiasts and commuters. Programs for bike sharing, rental, servicing
and parking will also be integrated into the waterfront design to increase interest
and opportunity for cycling along the waterfront.

The new Alaskan Way will include short-term on-street parking, passenger loading

FRAMEWORK STRATEGIES
7. URBAN FRONTAGES
The quality of the public realm on the waterfront will depend on the development
of city owned properties within the project limits as well as on the development
of privately-owned properties in the project vicinity. With few opportunities for
private development within the project area itself, the urban development strategy
focuses on ensuring that future development in adjacent areas will complement
and reinforce the changed conditions planned for the waterfront.
Preliminary guidance for the development of the East Frontage area between
Alaskan Way and Western Avenue has been provided, building on the Citys
existing design guidelines for downtown development. This work will assist with
possible changes to downtown land use regulations and further development of
guidelines addressing architectural massing and expression, historic character,
streetscape, public amenities, and vehicular access and parking, which will be
used in the review of future projects by the Downtown Design Review Board and
Special Review District Boards.

FRAMEWORK STRATEGIES
SUSTAINABILITY
The City of Seattle Guiding Principles commits this project to putting the shoreline
and innovative, sustainable design at the forefront. The goals are to bring people
to the waters edge to experience the water and ecology of Elliott Bay, to improve
shoreline ecology while preserving and enhancing maritime activities, and to
reflect Seattles commitment to sustainability and innovation.
The waterfront is particularly interesting from a local environmental perspective.
It is located within a region of transition between two ecological communities,
the aquatic communities of Elliott Bay and the upland communities in the urban
neighborhoods abutting the waterfront. Both ecosystems have suffered decades
of pollution and degradation, and are in great need of some repair. This framework
plan focuses on identifying opportunities for enhancing ecological communities
on the waterfront and improving the connections between them.
The primary components of the urban upland habitat are trees and pocket parks.
The establishment of strategic upland habitat corridors, stretching from the
aquatic regions to the upland and connecting existing and proposed habitats, will
ensure the integration of the Central Waterfront with the existing urban open
space network and its contribution to the creation of a more sustainable upland
urban ecosystem.
