Southwest Waterfront Park - East

Southwest Waterfront Park is a public green space located along the Washington Channel in the Southwest Waterfront neighborhood of Washington, D.C. The park stretches for approximately 3.5 acres along the waterfront, offering visitors scenic views of the Potomac River and the city skyline.

Developed as part of The Wharf redevelopment project, Southwest Waterfront Park serves as a connection between the urban environment and the natural waterfront. The park features a mix of landscaped areas with trees, shrubs, and grassy spaces, providing a natural respite within the city.

The park includes a riverfront promenade that allows visitors to stroll along the water's edge, enjoying views of boats in the marina and water activities on the channel. This walkway is part of a larger network of pedestrian paths that connect various areas of The Wharf development.

Southwest Waterfront Park plays a role in the neighborhood's stormwater management system, incorporating sustainable design elements to help filter runoff before it enters the Washington Channel.

The park serves as a venue for various community events and activities throughout the year, contributing to the vibrant atmosphere of the Southwest Waterfront area.
