Maritime and rail corridor between Queen Anne and Magnolia
Quick answerUpdated October 18, 2026
Interbay is the narrow industrial and maritime valley between Queen Anne and Magnolia, home to BNSF's Balmer rail yard, Fishermen's Terminal, Smith Cove and Elliott Bay Marina. It has no tattoo studio cluster of its own, but the RapidRide D Line along 15th Avenue West connects it quickly to studios in Ballard, Uptown and downtown.

Getting tattooed in Interbay
Much of Interbay is taken up by BNSF Railway's Balmer Yard. It's also home to Fishermen's Terminal on Salmon Bay, the home port of Seattle's commercial fishing fleet, and to the Port of Seattle's piers at Smith Cove. The Ballard Bridge crosses the Ship Canal from Interbay to Ballard.
Smith Cove Park, a Port of Seattle park at 1450 23rd Avenue West, and Elliott Bay Marina sit on the Elliott Bay shoreline. The neighborhood is mostly a corridor for people traveling between Ballard, Magnolia and Uptown.
The RapidRide D Line runs along 15th Avenue West between Ballard, Interbay, Uptown and downtown, which makes Interbay an easy stop between Ballard's studios and Uptown's. After a session, walking the docks at Fishermen's Terminal is a calm way to spend an hour. Keep a fresh tattoo out of Elliott Bay until it has healed.

How do I get to Interbay by bus?
The RapidRide D Line runs along 15th Avenue West through Interbay, linking it with Ballard and Crown Hill to the north and Uptown and downtown to the south. It's the fastest transit option, since light rail doesn't serve this side of the city yet.
What can I do in Interbay after getting a tattoo?
Walk the docks at Fishermen's Terminal to see the fishing fleet, or stroll Smith Cove Park's waterfront. Keep a fresh tattoo covered from sun and spray, and don't get in Elliott Bay until it has fully healed. The CDC advises keeping recent tattoos out of saltwater.
