Situated on a bluff that extends from Lake Union's northern side, Gas Works Park is both a Seattle Landmark and a National Register of Historic Places listed park.
The Seattle Gas Light Company constructed the land as a gas works plant in 1906, although it had been suggested for a park in the Olmsted Report of 1903. Up until 1956, when new gas and energy sources came in Seattle, the city was supplied with gas by the coal and oil gasification facility.
In July 1976, following years of cleansing and decontamination work, the park was eventually opened to the public.
