Occidental Park, also referred to as Occidental Square (north of S. Main Street) and Occidental Mall (south of S. Main Street), is a 0.6 acre (2,400 m²) public park located in the Pioneer Square district of Seattle, Washington. Created in 1971, it essentially consists of the Occidental Avenue S. right-of-way between S. Washington and S. Jackson Streets, plus half a city block between S. Main and S. Jackson Streets. The Seattle Waterfront Streetcar bisects it, running along S. Main Street.
The park is in the heart of Seattle's largest art gallery district, and several galleries face onto Occidental Mall.
