The
primary acoustic challenges with this project included noise from
the Alaskan Way Viaduct, which is a 4 lane elevated highway, plus
noise and vibration from the Burlington Northern freight trains
that pass within 25 feet of the east face of all 3 phases of the
project.. The 55 mph highway passes less than 60 feet from the southeast
corner of Phase 1.
