Take a break in Waterfront Park. by worldkiwi
The waterfront area, particularly around piers 55 and 56, can get very crowded and noisy in the summer. The dreadful Alaska Way, apart from being an ugly eyesore on Seattle's waterfront, also helps add to the noise level in this level.To escape the crowds a little, detour into Waterfront Park, which is actually a pier with seating at the end and some relatively wide open space. A perch here affords pleasant views of the maritime activity in the sound and gives you time to catch your piece and munch on a take-away snack.
