re:Invent Plaza is part of Amazon’s Block 20 in downtown Seattle. Designed by Site Workshop and completed in 2019, the plaza faces 7th Avenue and the Spheres. Gerard Tsutakawa’s bronze fountain sculpture Tonbi forms its focal point. Planted edges enclose seating areas, while a pedestrian passage connects the plaza to a second water feature within the block.
