“Fin Art” – What Is It?



The Sand Pont Naval Air Station in Seattle was closed in 1995 and became the Warren G. Magnuson Park and in 1998, a sculpture project, "The Fin Project: From Swords to Plowshares." Made from submarine fins, each one has a plaque describing from which submarine it came.   


 The sculpture project title comes from Micah 4:3:  “…they shall beat their swords into plowshares, and their spears into pruninghooks: nation shall not lift up a sword against nation, neither shall they learn war anymore.”

Beautiful walk along the lake



The park (350 acres) is along the shore of Lake Washington 
and also includes a eco-wetland walk.
