RESTORING A CONTAMINATED SITE FOR THE COMMUNITY AND HABITAT
Following completion of Terminal 117 cleanup and the   Present plans, shaped by community ideas and
T-117 in 2016
adjacent City of Seattle streets and stormwater work,      comments, include public open space, fish and wildlife
the Port plans to restore the formerly contaminated       habitat, walkways, gathering spaces, viewpoints,
industrial site as a location combining environmental     interpretive information, access to the water and
health, accessible and safe open space, and fish and       habitat, and public art. The project will provide critical
wildlife habitat for South Park citizens to include in        environmental restoration in the Duwamish Waterway
community life.                                         and contribute a substantial public use and open
space community asset at a formerly inaccessible and
environmentally hazardous location.
