Owen Beach in Tacoma, Seattle πποΈ
Owen Beach, located in Tacoma within the greater Seattle metropolitan area, is one of the regionβs most beloved and well-preserved natural beaches ποΈ. As a key destination within Point Defiance Park, itβs a popular spot for beachcombing, family picnics, and gatherings π¨βπ©βπ§βπ¦π². In collaboration with Metro Parks Tacoma, Site Workshop revitalized Owen Beach with a focus on equity, ecology, and cultural sensitivity πβ¨. The design team preserved the beachβs natural character while enhancing amenities and infrastructure. Surrounded by old-growth forest, the open bay, scattered driftwood, nature-inspired play structures, and rustic materials make it an ideal retreat for nature-loving residents of the Pacific Northwest πͺ΅π²πͺ¨. #UrbanChronicles #UrbanRenewal #NatureBeauty #LandscapeDesign #Seattle #Tacoma πΈπ
