2011 Map of Seattle South

About this map

Industrial corridors and established urban neighborhoods define this portion of Seattle in the early 21st century. The Duwamish Waterway serves as the central artery for heavy maritime commerce, separating Delridge and Highland Park from the eastern neighborhoods of Mount Baker and Columbia City. At the heart of the city's academic and administrative life, Seattle University occupies a significant footprint near Yesler Terrace and the Denny Regrade. The map captures the complex infrastructure of a modern port city, showing the Boeing Field-King County International Airport and the massive industrial facilities on Harbor Island. To the east, the residential shoreline of Lake Washington provides a sharp contrast to the industrial west, anchored by the large green space of Seward Park on the Bailey Peninsula. Infrastructure landmarks like the Lacey V Murrow Bridge and the Mount Baker Ridge Tunnel highlight the transit connections across the region's varied terrain.
