Piers 62/63 are public piers in downtown Seattle that offer easy access to the waterfront. You will see people on picnics, a fisherman dropping a line, and photographers waiting for the perfect light to capture parasailers, ferries, and mesmerizing sunsets. It is the former site of Summer Nights at the Pier, an open-air theater that hosted about 4,000 guests in an intimate, bleacher-style setting. The Piers occasionally host special events, but they are aged, slowly deteriorating, and can no longer bear heavy load weights.
