Notes |
The Battery Street Tunnel was the City of Seattle Engineering Department's first venture into tunnel design. It was designed and built to minimize traffic disruption and reduce risk to neighboring buildings. Its health and safety features were innovative at the time, including a ventilation system actuated by carbon monoxide monitors and a heat-actuated automatic sprinkler system. The viaduct and the tunnel played an important role in the development of Seattle and the region by providing a direct connection through downtown Seattle and to the industrial areas to the south.
