The Fremont Cut is a part of the Lake Washington Ship Canal—which passes through the city of U.S. city of Seattle, Washington, linking Lake Washington to Puget Sound—that connects Lake Union to the east with Salmon Bay to the west. It is 5,800 feet (1,800 m) long and 270 feet (82 m) wide. The center channel is 100 feet (30 m) wide and 30 feet (9.1 m) deep. It is spanned by the Fremont Bridge, a bascule drawbridge--which connects the neighborhoods of Fremont and Queen Anne via Fremont Avenue North. A campus of Adobe Systems is located at the south-eastern quadrant of this intersection of bridge and canal, and an office of Google is located on the north-eastern quadrant.
