Jackson Main Architecture

A new Seattle landmark has arrived at Pier 57!

Jackson | Main Architecture is proud to have supported the design of the new SEATTLE monument at Miners Landing - a public gathering place created to celebrate the city as Seattle prepares to welcome visitors from around the world for the 2026 FIFA World Cup.

The monument features original Indigenous artwork by John Smith, a member of the Skokomish Tribe, with fabrication and installation completed by National Sign.

We’re honored to have played a role in helping bring this community-focused project to life, alongside John Smith, National Sign and the Miners Landing team.

Happy Pride Month from all of us at Jackson | Main Architecture!

At JMA, Equity is one of our C.R.E.A.T.E.S. values and an important part of how we approach our work, our relationships and the communities we serve. We believe good design should support spaces that are welcoming, accessible, respectful and responsive to the people who use them.

In celebration of Pride Month, we’re highlighting a few events happening in and around Pioneer Square, along with other nearby Seattle celebrations:

Hot Rat Summer Opening Reception
June 13 | 5 PM - 9 PM

Perspective changes everything.
Great design starts by looking beyond what’s directly in front of us. Sometimes the best opportunities are found by viewing a familiar place from an entirely different angle.

Jackson | Main Architecture, P.S. (JMA) provided architectural services for Sherlock Self Storage's 89,407 SF facility spanning four levels with 592 storage units in rural King County. The design incorporates a basement and mezzanine within a three-story form, optimizing capacity while responding to local zoning constraints. Drawing inspiration from a nearby historic barn, the building aligns with community character while navigating SEPA requirements, parking, and landscape standards.
