North Passage Point ParkSeattle Parks and Recreation Information: (206) 684-4075 | Contact Us TTY Phone: (206) 233-1509 SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENTSA propeller from the Arctic Bear – a shallow draft tug that saw service in the icy fjords of Alaska – was recently installed at North Passage Point Park abutting Lake Union. Bering Marine of Seattle donated the propeller at the request of Philip Theil, naval architect and professor emeritus at the University of Washington’s School of Architecture. It was Mr. Theil’s idea to honor the tradition of working watercraft that plied Lake Union’s waters for decades. Please join Seattle Parks and Recreation in a community celebration of this project, Sunday, May 20, from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. at the park. Click to skip down to:

Finished in 1977, it offers two small picnic on the grass, and several benches on a concrete bulkhead at the water's edge.
