Seattle Alaskan Way Seawall: Emergency Earthquake Evaluation and Repair
The City of Seattle began the construction of the Alaskan Way Seawall in 1934 which would complete a system of seawalls spanning 2,400 m (7,900 ft) along the waterfront. The November 8, 1934, Engineering News Record featured Seattle's challenge of building a seawall. The challenge was described as "The need for a modern type of seawall construction along this harbor front thoroughfare has been recognized as a desirable improvement for more than twenty years: a deterrent factor has been the high cost entailed by the physical problems of soft bottom, and a 16-ft tide range, with the attendant marine-borer menace to timber construction."
