The Ballard Locks serve as a vital link between Puget Sound and Seattle's freshwater lakes, being the busiest facility of its kind in the U.S. Completed in 1917, they were the largest locks on the West Coast and play a crucial role in maintaining water levels and facilitating vessel movement. A major tourist attraction, the locks draw over a million visitors each year, who enjoy watching salmon migrate through the fish ladder, exploring the botanical gardens, and observing the diverse array of ships navigating the locks.
