The first interdeparmental meeting between Parks, SDOT, SPU, EBCA, and consultants

Happy New Year and a big year this is going to be for the East Ballard neighborhood! This is the year YOU will help design a park along 14th Ave NW between NW 59th and NW 61st. Not just on paper, but one for REAL! This is going to be a park designed the way the community wants it, because YOU are going to mark your calendar and participate in 2 upcoming community meetings!

At Meeting #1, Seattle Parks Dept, the EBCA, and Mithun, the design consultant, will present the history of the project, site analysis and three design options. These park and street options will incorporate parking, traffic and safety, and water treatment strategies. The goal of this stage of the project is to create a schematic design and cost estimate to present at Meeting #2.
