Victor Steinbrueck Park sits at the north end of Pike Place Market, at 1999 Western Ave. Stop here for open views across Elliott Bay, where ferries cross the water and West Seattle lies beyond; the city skyline and Mt. Rainier are also visible. Grassy areas and benches make it a handy place to pause with coffee or food from the market. Look for the totem poles in the park, then take in the harbor and the nearby Ferris wheel.
A waterfront pause beside Pike Place Market
At the north end of Pike Place Market, Victor Steinbrueck Park gives you a place to step away from the stalls and look out over Elliott Bay. Ferries travel across the water, and West Seattle is visible across the bay. The park also looks toward the city skyline and the nearby Ferris wheel.
Grassy areas and benches make it possible to sit with a coffee or a picnic. The market is close by, so you can pick up food before settling in. Totem poles are another detail to look for during a stop.
When to visit
The park is recommended for daylight visits. Around sunset, the views across the water are a reason to linger. Much of the park receives direct sun during the day, so there may be little relief from it in the open areas.
