July 10 marked the one-year anniversary since the groundbreaking event for the Terminal 5 Modernization Project in Seattle.
Phase one of pile driving was also completed in July, where 184 steel pipe piles were vibrated and driven in to reinforce the upland portion of the wharf and support the new super-post-Panamax cranes arriving in 2021.
The first phase of the modernization project is expected to be completed in spring 2021.
Terminal 5 activity is estimated to result in 6,600 new direct jobs and more than $2 billion in commerce.
