Located between the shores of the Elliott Bay and Salmon Bay, Interbay is an industrial area. This neighborhood is home to the Balmer Yard, a railyard owned by BNSF Railway, and related service shops and businesses. The neighborhood is also home to the Seattle Armory, but industry isn’t the only attraction this dynamic area has to offer. Bayfront parks and trails including Smith Cove Park and the Magnolia Greenbelt dot the neighborhood. While the centers of town are mostly devoted to businesses, the edges of town are home to a variety of trendy apartments, condos, and a few homes for rent.
Downtown Seattle’s renowned shopping and dining opportunities are just five miles south of Interbay, but local seafood restaurants and the Interbay Urban Center, a shopping mall, are situated within the neighborhood.
