	Encyclopedia: Alaskan Way Seawall (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-28)
		The Alaskan Way Seawall is a seawall which runs for 7,000 feet along the Elliott Bay waterfront southwest of downtown Seattle from Bay Street to S. Washington Street.
		Completed in 1934, the seawall was built on top of wood piling which has significantly deteriorated due to wood eating gribbles.
		In addition, everything behind the seawall from Alaskan Way to Western Avenue is built on top of fill, making for a very dangerous situation should a large earthquake occur.

		The effect of this migration will be the gradual loss of beach in front of the seawall or revetment as the water deepens and the shoreface moves landward....
		This process of passive erosion appears to be a generally agreed upon result of fixing the position of the shoreline on an otherwise eroding stretch of coast, and is independent of the type of seawall constructed." It is evident that passive erosion will eventually destroy the recreational beach area unless this area is continually replenished.
		In Solana Beach for example most land for seawalls is leased free of charge to the property owners.

	Say NO to the construction of a seawall on Cupecoy beach Petition
		Even though there is an already existing seawall built after hurricane LENNY in 1999 on the remaining site of an original property wall and protecting the land subject to development, this new and second seawall is being built right on the beach and infringe a very large part of it.
		The already existing seawall built with boulder after hurricane Lenny in 1999, mark by itself the “definite change in material or physiographic form, where topography abruptly change marking a clear demarcation of the edge of a coast” and thus the limits of the developable piece of land.
		The construction of the new seawall taking away half of the existing beach is nothing less that a land fill, and thus a gain of land to extend the developable surface of the property by the developer.
