Located under the city’s iconic Space Needle and adjacent to Frank Gehry’s Museum of Pop Culture, the new Seattle Center Skate Plaza is a hub for street skateboarding in the Pacific Northwest region. As a part of a multi-disciplinary team, New Line Skateparks has developed a design that functions with complex site constraints, integrates native planting and materials in on-site stormwater treatment areas, and includes custom lighting and artistic glass paneling. This space is intended to fill the gaps in the greater Seattle skatepark network, with accessibility and inclusion as top priorities in the design process. Working with local advocates including the non-profit Skate Like A Girl, the new Seattle Center Skate Plaza will be a space for a diverse user group to feel welcome, with opportunities for progression and programming throughout the park.
