Southwest Waterfront

Living In Southwest Waterfront

Southwest Waterfront has been reimagined with the introduction of the Wharf. Catch a concert at the Anthem or dinner at Michelin star restaurants. Southwest Waterfront is now a weekend destination for thousands of visitors. Branch out from the ballparks toward Jazz Night in Southwest and the beautifully situated capital for American theatre, the Arena Stage.

Places To See

Captain White’s Seafood City sells fresh-caught seafood on the Southwest Waterfront. If eating seafood isn’t your deal, then Washington Marina is a great place to enjoy a dock-side picnic. Branch out from the ballparks and catch a live performance at one of the many venues at The Wharf, including The Anthem, Arena Stage, Union Stage, or the Floating Barge. In the cooler months enjoy the Ice Skating Rink and fire pits, while and in the warmer months take a ride on a paddle boat or a day cruise.
