puget sound naval shipyard memorial plaza

Nice place good history. Realize its pretty small. I see kids having a great time during the summer but don't expect to see anything amazing. From the top of the plaza to the end of it is about a 30 second walk.

Walking around and it's right by the Ferry terminal! Walk down numerous steps and it's there. If weather is good it's a nice place to have a picnic lunch or just bring a book along to read. Very nice area and sculptures and views very nice too. Enjoyed looking at everything here and you can walk around up a sidewalk and close to the Naval Museum!

we visited the navel ship yard museum and memorial plaza! the museum was free. Parking was an issue. It didn't open until 1000 so we drove over the new bridge to east Bremerton. It was very interesting learning about ship building, subs, navy etc.

Beautiful sea-side navy town is worth a quick stop if you're getting off the ferry. Terminal is walking distance and the musuem and fountain park is quite well done.

relaxing place, could stay and enjoy any day of the week. It's close to the ferry, convention center, and Puget Sound Museum. Places to sit and enjoy the view from every direction. Food is just steps away.

There are a lot of events that happen on this Memorial Plaza, fairs, Blackberry Festival, people hanging out there to see the water fountains, the waterfront, some of the shops and stores, looking into areas of the water where you can see sea stars, fish, and anemonies--it's a great place to visit especially with little kids who love the wonders of nature!

Very nice plaza area and we rode the large Ferry's to Seattle from here. It was very cool to say the least.

Built to memorialize the shipyard that has been the heart and soul of Bremerton for well over 100 years, the plaza was completed in 2009 and is about 500 feet long. It is comprised of three separate plazas that include interpretive displays, fountains and waterfalls, stone sculptures, beautiful landscaping and huge boulders. There are also picnic tables and benches placed strategically in order to enjoy the animated portions of the fountains that change slowly to either shoot water through the holes carved in the rocks or splash against the rock faces.The first plaza honors the Women Workers of World War I featuring a 4-foot sculpture of rivet heater, Esther Bielmeier. The second plaza commemorates the Shipyard during World War II, the most prominent display being the bow of the guided-missile cruiser, USS South Carolina. The last plaza closest to the shipyard gate depicts today's shipyard workers who work to maintain the ships of the United States Navy.
