Percival Landing is one of Olympia's three waterfront parks. The .9-mile boardwalk extends along the eastern shoreline of West Bay from the Fourth Avenue Bridge to Thurston Avenue. The City completed acquisition of the former Unocal Tank Farm site in 1996. This additional parkland is now a lawn area used for picnics and gatherings during special events.
