Jack Block Park

Yesterday I found yet another very cool park in Seattle.  It is just down the hill from my place

It is situated down on the water just across from downtown Seattle.  Normally a person goes to a park and sees swings, big rolling lawns and people playing frisbee.  Not at Jack Block Park.  This park winds through, or along the shipyards of Elliot Bay.  Its a very interesting walk as you see ships anchored just offshore to the north and thousands of shipping containers to the south.  To the east is an unobstructed view of downtown and more!


You can see the park going along the water





See the benches in the above pic?  The picture below shows what your view is when you take a seat and gander off to the east





Now turn around, this is where you came from to get to this bench



Walking along the dock, or dockway - whatever it is?!
