ABSTRACT
Located on the former site of petroleum transfer station, Olympic Sculpture
Park, which opened in 2007, is the result of an international design competi-
tion sponsored by the Seattle Art Museum and the Trust for Public Land. The
park features pathways and gardens that bridge a major roadway and active
freight-rail lines and lead to the shore of Puget Sound, while mitigating the ef-
fects of more than 20 feet in level change. Public art in the park includes work
by noted sculptors Richard Serra and Claes Oldenburg.
