The waterfall in the courtyard at Union Square in Downtown Seattle is a treat. You will find a bountiful amount of splashing water, easy to approach on several levels because it is flanked by flights of stairs. (Kids are sure to love it!) The design of the waterfall works well with the tall building (2 Union Square) behind & above it. The water leads your eye up toward the skyscraper & appears to spring from the tower's base. There is a 2nd, smaller waterfall across the courtyard. The planting design isn't wonderful, the paving is mundane & there is very little seating. But the cascading water is reason enough to visit the courtyard during your jaunt downtown. It is located very near the center of the retail district at 6th Avenue & Union Street.
