M-Dock Gangway Access Restrictions on Thursday, June 24

The M-Dock gangway will be out of service for short periods of time tomorrow (Thursday) morning while the sidewalk is being poured at the top of the ramp. Once the concrete is poured/finished, the contractor will put planks over the top for tenant access to the M-Dock ramp. The use of carts, however, will be restricted throughout the day.  M-Dock tenants may contact Doreen Torseth (206-794-5372) to receive contractor assistance with getting gear up/down the ramp on Thursday.

If there are questions, please contact the Marina office (206-824-5700).

Guest Moorage Ramp -- Temporary Relocation

The Guest Moorage gangway (which is used for access to N-Dock, fuel dock and guest moorage areas) has been moved to a new/temporary location due west of the Marina Office. Anyone wishing to access these docks should proceed through the breezeway between the Marina Office and Restrooms and straight down the ramp.


Please be aware that this is a temporary access measure while construction takes place in the vicinity of the fuel tanks and former location of the gangway. The pathway is not paved, so please exercise caution as you proceed through this area.

Marina Office Parking Lot - Temporarily Closed

Beginning tomorrow, Tuesday, June 8, the “horseshoe” parking lot behind the Marina Office will be temporarily closed due to construction of the 36” storm drain line. IMCO General Construction will be working to connect the new 36” storm drain to the existing storm drain system in an area in the middle of the Marina Office parking lot. The anticipated parking lot closure is expected to last two weeks (dependent upon weather).

Pedestrian access will be available to the Marina Office, but vehicles must park in the area just to the east of the dry sheds along Dock Avenue South.

If you have any questions or need special assistance, please contact the Marina Office at 206-824-5700.

Thank you for your continued care, caution and patience during construction.
