Seattle’s Newest Park

It’s not much to look at. It’s just a small sliver of beachfront off the Burke-Gilman Trail. It’s not readily accessible by car. However, the NE 130th Street End Park now belongs to the city after a long battle. You can read about it in this Seattle Times article.  

The Save the Beach campaign was an effort by many folks in the Lake City neighborhood to get the city to reclaim the property from the adjacent landowners, who decided to declare it their own. The city did have to purchase the property; however, the park now provides a place for bicyclists and runners to cool their heels on a hot day. Congratulations!
