About Waterfront Park/Pier 62

The inaugural site of Seattle’s future Waterfront Park, Pier 62 is a revitalized historic pier offering flexible, active community space. Pier 62 marks the beginning of the Seattle waterfront’s next chapter as a place that provides profound public benefits. Pier 62 features a new floating dock, integrated lighting, and other design elements that open up this one acre site on Seattle's central waterfront as a canvas for a range of year round public uses. From music, soccer, and guided educational kayak tours to dance performances, markets, fishing, yoga classes, and more, Pier 62 hosts an array of free park programs for locals and visitors of all ages. Play games with your friends, or just relax and enjoy the view. Free games and amenities include chess, cornhole, connect four, and a soccer pitch.
