Basketball Hoops in Occidental Square
—
Basketball hoops in Occidental Square feature backboards designed by local Seattle artists Ten Hundred and Leo Shallat. We believe there should be free, accessible public recreation throughout downtown, and these hoops represent a small part of that mission. Stop by the park now and show off your moves – but no dunking, please!
