Mission

Represent the greater Seattle waterfront community

990 for the year ended December 31, 2025

Program accomplishments

  • The Association served the greater Seattle waterfront community representing dozens of businesses, residents, public facilities and visitors with the Association's efforts to understand and advocate for the community and the redevelopment of the central waterfront. The Association incurred expenses reviewing the various projects and mitigation ideas. For instance, during construction, a major problem was letting the community and tourists know that Seattle's Waterfront is open, which the organization did through its website, purchased advertising, and social media. Our goal is to promote the waterfront as being open, safe and fun for all.
