MKA ROLE

Structural and Civil Engineer

Seattle, WA
Overlook Walk

This transformative design features a unique pedestrian bridge connecting historic Pike Place Market to the revitalized Seattle waterfront. MKA's civil engineers coordinated design efforts to seamlessly unite three concurrent projects: the elevated pedestrian walkway and public space, the Seattle Aquarium Ocean Pavilion, and the waterfront promenade improvements and relocation of Alaskan Way. MKA provided grading, paving, and drainage improvements for the Salish Steps and Plaza; grading consultation for the elevated bridge elements; and complete civil design of the Seattle Parks & Recreation enclosure tucked beneath the pedestrian bridge on the east side of Alaskan Way.
