Victor Steinbrueck Park
Victor Steinbrueck Park offers a serene escape from the bustling Pike Place Market. Originally the site of a historic armory demolished in 1968, this urban park was designed in 1982 by Victor Steinbrueck and Richard Haag.
The park is significant for its preservationist roots, dedicated to revitalizing urban spaces. Key features include two 50-foot totem poles carved by Quinault tribe members, James Bender and Marvin Oliver, benches for relaxation, and picturesque views of Elliott Bay and the waterfront.
