Waterfront Park is a public park on the Central Waterfront, Downtown, Seattle, Washington, USA. Designed by the Bumgardner Partnership and consultants, it was constructed on the site of the former Schwabacher Wharf (Pier 58).[1][2] The original park closed in September 2020 after a failed inspection; the pier was completely removed by February 2021. A replacement park began construction in 2022 and is scheduled to open in 2025.
