On the east side, looking south from St. Edwards State Park. Lake Washington separates Seattle, Washington, from the suburbs to the east. It is natural, occupying a glacially scoured basin, but its level was lowered about 9 ft (3 m) in 1916 with the construction of the Ship Canal directly across Seattle to Puget Sound. The original outlet was at the south, where the lake overflowed into the Duwamish River.
