The main terminal at Colman Dock features a sweeping, curved roof that mimics the motion of the waves in Elliott Bay. This structure serves as the primary gateway for thousands of commuters traveling by ferry each day. James Colman built the original wharf in eighteen eighty-two to support the coal trade, but the site burned down repeatedly. In nineteen ten, the city replaced the wooden pier with concrete, cementing the location as the permanent heart of Seattle’s maritime transit network.
