Where South Lake Union Meets the Water
Lake Union Piers is named in tribute to its prominent, publicly-accessible piers on the lake and Seattle’s storied maritime history. This unique waterfront property is comprised of 60,000 square feet across four buildings, with 40,000 square feet dedicated to new food, drink, and shopping concepts. Modern terraced seating, shoreline plantings, and outdoor patios make the most of sweeping views, leisurely strolling, and lakefront relaxation.
The project includes expanded visitor moorage and improved connections from arrival points to the water’s edge for easier access by land and boat. Complemented by modern lighting, thoughtfully placed trees, and abundant native landscaping to evoke a park‑like setting, Lake Union Piers renovates and revitalizes this historic property to create South Lake Union’s entertainment destination along the water.

Lake Union Piers Notches an Environmental First
Building and site upgrades are done and tenant improvement work is underway at the 5-acre project, which has offset 100% of the buildings' embodied emissions. It was a collective effort by Vulcan, Abbott Construction and The Miller Hull Partnership, which has a 3-year-old decarbonization effort called EMission Zero.
