The Pike Street Hill Climb, also known as Pike Street Hillclimb,[1] is a pathway consisting of steps[2] and escalators/elevators[3] that connect Seattle's Alaskan Way[4] and Central Waterfront along Elliott Bay to Pike Place Market in the U.S. state of Washington.[5][6] The climb has been described by The Seattle Times as a "glute-burning short cut".[7]
Features
A series of cluster lights are installed along the climb.[8]
Businesses along the climb have included the cocktail bar Zig Zag Café,[9] the Mexican restaurant El Puerco Lloron,[10] Procopio Gelateria,[11] and other "chic shops and ethnic restaurants".[12]
