CANAL LOCKS SECOND TO
The Canal is about eight miles long
from Puget Sound to Lake Washington.
It adds more than ninety miles to Se-
attle's water frontage and gives access
for ocean shipping to the non-tidal fresh
water harbors of Lake Union, in the
heart of the City, and Lake Washington,
twenty-five miles long and four wide,
on the east boundary of Seattle. The
right-of-way is 300 feet wide, the chan-
nel 100 feet wide, and the depth 36
feet. The locks are capable of lifting
larger vessels than any government
locks outside the Panama Canal.
