Market to MOHAI

This corridor utilizes streets around Seattle, taking urban hikers from the Museum of History and Industry (MOHAI) to Pike Place Market downtown. You'll walk to or through four urban parks in the city, including Lake Union Park and Denny Park. 

Start at the south end of Lake Union at MOHAI, where you can enjoy some time by the water before heading south toward downtown on Westlake Ave N. After half a mile, turn right on Denny Park for one block. Here, you'll be at Denny Park, where you'll find plenty of greenery and an off-leash dog park. 

Cross Denny Way from here and head southwest down Bell St. In a quarter-mile, you'll walk right through Bell Street Park and Regrade Park, where the sidewalk widens and the street shrinks. 

Continue for another 0.2 miles to Western Ave, and turn left. In 0.3 miles, you'll walk past Victor Steinbrueck Park on your right, where you'll get some wide views of Elliot Bay and the pier. Here, you'll find plenty of benches to sit and have lunch or relax for a while. Just past this, you'll reach Seattle's iconic Pike Place Market. 

Along the corridor, you'll come across 75 blue tiles embedded in the walkway that display quotes from various people from the Puget Sound, as well as 46 "history blades" (placards on lampposts) sharing some of Seattle's history.
