DESCRIPTION
Located along the west margin of one of the two historic discharge channels for the Duwamish River, the Terminal 107 site represents one of the least disturbed shoreline areas in the present Duwamish Waterway. Completed in 2000, the Port improved approximately 7.2 acres of upland area by removing previous industrial, commercial and residential structures, including 4,500 tons of concrete debris and added 0.34 acres of native riparian plants and 15,134 square feet of native emergent vegetation. In 2009, the Port of Seattle with the help of community volunteers improved 0.21 native riparian planting areas and installed 1,141 square feet of native emergent vegetation.
Currently the Terminal 107 public shoreline access site includes approximately 1,100 linear feet of shoreline and 1,400 linear feet of pathways, with shoreline viewing areas. Summary adapted from the Port of Seattle's Lower Duwamish River Habitat Restoration Plan (2009).
