The
Industrial District is the principal industrial area of
Seattle, Washington. It is bounded on the west by the
Duwamish Waterway and
Elliott Bay, beyond which lies
Delridge of
West Seattle; on the east by
Interstate 5, beyond which lies
Beacon Hill; on the north by S King and S Dearborn Streets, beyond which lie
Pioneer Square and southwest
International District of
Downtown; and on the south by the main lines of the
BNSF Railway and
Union Pacific Railroad, or about S Lucille Street, beyond which is
Georgetown.
SoDo is the name of the northwest portion of the neighborhood, named for its being
South of
Downtown. SoDo is the location of
Safeco Field, home of the
Seattle Mariners, and CenturyLink Field, home of the
Seattle Seahawks and
Seattle Sounders FC. CenturyLink Field was also the site of the former
Kingdome. The Industrial District may also be defined by land use, with the primarily residential and open space Delridge district extending west from W Marginal Way SW and south of SW Spokane Street, and with the heavy industrial-zoned lower
Duwamish Waterway east of Marginal and north of Spokane as part of the Industrial District.
