Seattle City Limits contain designated shoreline street ends, which are land portions of street segments providing physical or visual access to water. The City of Seattle Department of Transportation (SDOT) tracks these sites, including information on nearest cross street, common place name, right-of-way width, and status. The dataset is updated daily, with the last recorded update on 2026-03-22.
