Seattle’s future Central Waterfront Design Finalists to Present at Benaroya Hall Tonight – It’s free
You are invited to a free event to hear from, and ask questions of, the four finalists for the role of lead designer for Seattle’s Central Waterfront. The finalist teams who will present are led by:
• Gustafson Guthrie Nichol (www.ggnltd.com)
• james corner field operations (www.fieldoperations.net)
• Michael Van Valkenburgh and Associates (www.mvvainc.com)
• Wallace Roberts and Todd (www.wrtdesign.com)
The Central Waterfront project will create more than 9 acres of new public space in the heart of our City – reconnecting Seattle to Elliott Bay after the removal of the Alaskan Way Viaduct. At the event, the finalists will showcase their skills, experience and approach to this landmark project. The winning designer will be selected in part on the strength of their presentation and their response to questions from the public at tonight’s meeting.
