Located on the southwest side of the Young Street Bridge in Aberdeen, WA is Kurt Cobain Riverfront Park. Dedicated to the memory of the singer/songwriter, the park is a small, river-front community park that has a number of sculptures, plaques and signs regarding Cobain.

The Nirvana frontman used to hang out under the bridge as a youth (his boyhood home is two blocks away). The song "Something in the Way" recounts his experiences there.

While it has been embellished that Cobain used to sleep under the bridge when he was homeless, this story has not been verified (although he did sleep nearby in the waiting room at Grays Harbor Community Hospital during homeless periods).

Under the Young Street Bridge there is graffiti and numerous messages tagged in memoriam of Cobain by his fans.
