Stunning sculpture park could redefine waterfront

Mother nature and Father city caught embracing in 9 acre park on Seattle's downtown waterfront!

"One of the park's prime features is its magnificent views. It presents a 360-degree panorama of Puget Sound, the Olympic Mountains, Mount Rainier and the surrounding city. And it makes Seattle a greener place, adding hundreds of trees and thousands of native plants to the urban core.

Yet the Olympic Sculpture Park isn't meant to be a simple brush with nature. New York architectural firm Weiss / Manfredi embraced the setting, with all its traffic, trains and busy people...Admission to the park will be free."
