About this map

Harbor Island and its surrounding industrial waterways dominate this map, documenting the sophisticated maritime and transportation infrastructure of south Seattle. The landscape is a study in logistics, where the Duwamish Waterway divides to create the Harbor Island Reach and Georgetown Reach, while the Alaskan Way Viaduct and Battery Street Tunnel provide critical transit links through the urban core.

Residential neighborhoods such as Capitol Hill, Yesler Terrace, and Rainier Valley are clearly defined, showing the city's dense residential character. Notable institutional footprints including Seattle Univ and the Cornish Coll of the Arts are present, alongside major logistical hubs like the Boeing Field/King County International Airport. From the burial grounds of Forest Lawn Cem to the spans of the Lacey V Murrow Bridge over Lake Washington, the map provides a comprehensive view of the region's late-2010s geography.
