LMN Architects Celebrates the Design and Construction of the New Seattle Aquarium Ocean Pavilion
LMN Architects is pleased to celebrate the design and construction of the new Seattle Aquarium Ocean Pavilion. The project is the first substantial addition to the Aquarium since 2007. The new construction includes 50,000 square feet of immersive living exhibits, back-of-house elements, theatrical spaces and views of the surrounding natural landscape and the urban waterfront.
Guided by the mission to inspire conservation of the marine environment, the Seattle Aquarium Ocean Pavilion will integrate a complex building program focused on public engagement into Seattle’s new central waterfront. The Ocean Pavilion joins the existing Aquarium facilities that occupy Piers 59 and 60 to create a new sustainable campus of Aquarium places. This network of buildings and the new Pavilion create an engaging human environment linking the city, waterfront and ocean.
