The Foss Waterway Seaport is a heritage museum that features hands-on displays, a wooden boat shop, as well as a functional dock. Imagine a faithfully restored 124-year old building that has served the shores of Tacoma since it was built and now houses the greatest collection of marine history in the South Sound. The Seaport museum today is equal parts education facility, boat shop, maritime museum, dock, moorage, and iconic events venue. Green practices: The Foss Waterway Museum focuses on sustainability by educating the community about local history and environmental conservation. It preserves the region’s maritime heritage and connects it to modern environmental issues, like the relationship between the Puyallup tribe and salmon.
