West Seattle Bridge
West Seattle Bridge, officially the Jeanette Williams Memorial Bridge, is a high-level cantilevered bridge connecting West Seattle with the city across the Duwamish Waterway.
Why go
West Seattle Bridge is a major piece of Seattle infrastructure with a clear geographic role. Completed in 1984 after an earlier bascule bridge became inoperable, it crosses the east and west channels at the mouth of the Duwamish River. The high structure explains how West Seattle connects to the Spokane Street Viaduct and Interstate 5 beyond the industrial waterfront.
