Queen Anne & Magnolia QUEEN community ANNE & info MAGNOLIA Within walking distance of Downtown Seattle is the community of Queen Anne. The neighborhood earned its moniker from the prominent Queen Anne architectural style that dominated the hill in its earliest days as a neighborhood. Lower Queen Anne is a bustling, fun area that has the Seattle Center sitting at its feet. Trendy restaurants offering cuisines from around the world are especially plentiful in Uptown. It’s a popular neighborhood for young, urban professionals who enjoy the city’s nightlife. Upscale condo living is an attractive residence option in this sub- neighborhood. While this hill neighborhood is quite steep– seven of the twenty steepest streets in Seattle are located in Queen Anne, along with 120 pedestrian staircases—it’s not the QUEEN ANNE highest point in the city. However, the steep incline of the area is something to keep in mind when info considering Queen Anne real estate. QUEEN ANNE neighbor hoods Queen Anne Avenue North connects Lower Queen Anne to Upper Queen Anne. Upper Queen Anne’s main commercial district features several note-worthy Seattle restaurants. Locals often refer to Queen Anne Avenue North as the Counterbalance, because of the counterweights built under the street for moving street cars up the steep incline in the neighborhood’s earlier years. The “Crown of Queen Anne,” a 3.7 mile loop includes circling Queen Anne hill, includes portions of 5th, 7th, 8th and 10th Avenues West; Bigelow Avenue North; West Blaine, McGraw, Wheeler, Fulton and Raye Streets; Smith, McGraw, and Wheeler Streets; and West McGraw and McGraw Places. The views from Queen Anne Boulevard are unparalleled and the loop retains the historic, park like setting both locals and visitors adore. Because the homes and shops residing in Upper Queen Anne also reflect the area’s historic charm and offer sweeping views, they mesh together really well with Queen Anne Boulevard. The whole vibe created contributes to Queen Anne’s “best neighborhood” status. The Magnolia neighborhood feels like a secluded island. Three bridges provide access to Magnolia, just west of Queen Anne, north of Downtown, and south the Ballard Locks. The lack of major city thoroughfares through the neighborhood helps Magnolia retain in friendly quaint, atmosphere. Being situated near the water means that there is abundant natural beauty in this area. Magnolia homes are famous for their often incredible views. The largest park in the city can be found in Magnolia—the 534-acre Discovery Park. Situated on the Magnolia Bluff overlooking Puget Sound, Discovery Park offers spectacular views of both the Cascade and the Olympic Mountain ranges. Here, you can wander the almost 12 miles of walking trails through waterfront hills, and rugged beaches with breathtaking views. MAGNOLIA A landmark of this neighborhood is the Palisades restaurant. The Sunday info brunch here is the most popular Magnolia restaurant in the area. QUEEN ANNE activities Kerry Park on the south slope of Queen Anne is most known for steep steps, Kerry monument, and breathtaking views. Tourists, local creatives and daters alike find comfort in this public space. The view encompasses downtown Seattle, Elliot Bay, West Seattle, Bainbridge Island and beautiful Mount Rainier. David Rodgers Park is a wooded play park on the north slope of Queen Anne. The park includes outdoor tennis courts and backboard, paths, children’s play area and a track with a central play field in the middle. In the heart of Queen Anne, is East Queen Anne Playground. This neighborhood park offers a playground with slides, swings for all ages, a wading pool and climbing fun! There is also a half basketball court and soccer and baseball/softball fields. The nearby West Queen Anne Playfield also has many amenities, including an indoor pool, community center, a play area, as well as soccer, baseball and softball fields! SEATTLE parks & recreation Our natural climate allows for year-round outdoor recreation, while our proximity to the Olympic and Cascade Mountain Ranges and the waters of the Puget Sound and Pacific Ocean offers a plethora of opportunity for walking, hiking, running, mountain biking, rock climbing, skiing, snowboarding, water sports, boating, and anything else you can dream of. As such, our local parks are redesigned for a variety of recreation, and combine our natural landscape with local fascination. The Burke-Gilman Trail runs 27-miles through Seattle, Lake Shore, and the Eastern Railway corridor. Additionally, the Washington Park Arboretum and Seattle Japanese Gardens are a beautiful addition to the Union Bay border. Fostered by the University of Washington’s botany department, the gardens consist of spectacular plants, intersecting form with natural beauty.

  • Comprehensive List of Seattle Parks Bonus Feature for Discovering Seattle Parks: a Local’S Guide by Linnea Westerlind
    COMPREHENSIVE LIST OF SEATTLE PARKS BONUS FEATURE FOR DISCOVERING SEATTLE PARKS: A LOCAL’S GUIDE BY LINNEA WESTERLIND Over the course of writing Discovering Seattle Parks, I visited every park in Seattle. While my guidebook describes the best 100 or so parks in the city (in bold below), this bonus feature lists all the parks in the city that are publicly owned, accessible, and worth a visit. Each park listing includes its address and top features. I skipped parks that are inaccessible (some of the city’s greenspaces have no paths or access points) and ones that are simply not worth a visit (just a square of grass in a median). This compilation also includes the best of the 149 waterfront street ends managed by the Seattle Department of Transportation that have been developed into mini parks. I did not include the more than 80 community P-Patches that are managed by the Department of Neighbor- hoods, although many are worth a visit to check out interesting garden art and peek at (but don’t touch) the garden beds bursting with veggies, herbs, and flowers. For more details, links to maps, and photos of all these parks, visit www.yearofseattleparks.com. Have fun exploring! DOWNTOWN SEATTLE & THE Kobe Terrace. 650 S.

  • Queen Anne Historic Context Statement
    QUEEN ANNE HISTORIC CONTEXT STATEMENT Prepared by Florence K. Lentz and Mimi Sheridan For the Seattle Department of Neighborhoods, Historic Preservation Program and the Queen Anne Historical Society October 2005 The community of Queen Anne is one of Seattle’s oldest residential neighborhoods. Pioneer settler Thomas Mercer first called the forested, water-lapped district Eden Hill. By the mid-1880s, the growing suburb had acquired the name Queen Anne Town in reference to its showy domestic architecture. The character of this thoroughly urban neighborhood today is the result of several key influences, both physical and human. Natural features have both encouraged and restrained the development of Queen Anne over time. Waterways at the base of the hill virtually assured adjacent industrial growth from an early date. At the same time, steep topography limited the spread of large-scale commercial and industrial land uses on the hill itself. Instead, the hill became attractive as an early residential suburb because of its spectacular territorial and water views and its relative accessibility to the city. Queen Anne Hill was linked to Seattle by public transit in the late 1880s. Thereafter, streetcar lines fostered rapid platting, intensive residential construction, and the eventual emergence of multifamily housing – all within a brief forty-year period of time. The close-in location and unsurpassed views continue to stabilize the high value of real estate on the hill. Queen Anne’s character has been shaped as much by its human resources as by its physical features. The fact that progressive, well-educated families made the hill their home from the outset has left a lasting legacy.

Repository Seattle Municipal Archives Seattle Municipal Archives Office of the City Clerk City of Seattle PO Box 94728 98124-4728 Seattle, WA Telephone: 206-233-7807 Fax: 206-386-9025 [email protected] Access Restrictions Records are open to the public. Languages English Historical Note The Department of Parks and Recreation maintains the City's parks, shorelines, and boulevards; and administers community centers, public golf courses, and other athletic and cultural facilities. Seattle's first park was established in 1884 after David Denny donated land to the City for that purpose. At that time, a three-member park committee, with limited authority, was created to manage the nascent park system. A Board of Parks Commissioners was established in 1890 with control over all public parks and authority to appoint a Parks Superintendent. In 1896, the City Charter created the position of Superintendent of Streets, Sewers and Parks. The Parks Department became a separate entity in 1904. In 1926, a City Charter amendment abolished the position of Superintendent, distributing its responsibilities between the Head Gardener and the Landscape Architect. A 1948 City Charter amendment required the Board of Park Commissioners to appoint a park superintendent to administer the department. In 1967, another City Charter Amendment reconstituted the Board as an advisory body to the Mayor and City Council, changed the agency name to Department of Parks and Recreation, and placed fiscal and operational administration under the superintendent.

  • Olmsted Legacy Task Force Report
    OLMSTED LEGACY TASK FORCE REPORT: REBIRTH OF OLMSTED’S DESIGN FOR EQUITY April 5, 2019 Submitted to: Superintendent, Seattle Parks and Recreation and the Seattle Board of Park Commissioners #1208838 v7 / 99988-503 I. INTRODUCTION In November of 2017, the former Superintendent of Seattle Parks and Recreation, Jesus Aguirre, asked for the assistance of the Friends of Seattle’s Olmsted Parks to assist Seattle Parks and Recreation in creating a task force with the goal of preserving Seattle’s rich and beloved Olmsted park heritage and to sustain it for future generations1. In response, the Friends of Seattle’s Olmsted Parks Board of Directors offered to participate in and to support the creation of the Olmsted Legacy Task Force. The Friends of Seattle’s Olmsted Parks confirmed its commitment to Seattle Parks and Recreation’s goal of developing a long-range approach to preserving Seattle’s historic Olmsted parks and boulevard system. This work was intended to provide a common-sense approach to rehabilitation, protection and curation of Seattle’s historic landscapes. 2 In its invitation to establish the Task Force, Seattle Parks and Recreation specifically described the purpose of the Task Force to “explore and develop strategies that enhance and preserve the Olmsted parks system through core principles based on equity, access and inclusion.”3 With an understanding of and a commitment to applying these core principles, the Task Force was formed. While the charge of the Task Force was to focus on the rehabilitation of Seattle’s Olmsted system of parks and boulevards, both Seattle Parks and Recreation and the Task Force recognized the long history of the Native people who were the original inhabitants of the area now known as Seattle and whose legacy dates back far beyond the Olmsted Brothers arrival in Seattle in 1903.

    The Promise of Seattle Boulevards Interlaken Boulevard. Photo by Seattle Neighborhood Greenways A report by Seattle Neighborhood Greenways (SNG) for the Seattle Department of Transportation (SDOT), Seattle Department of Parks and Recreation (SPR), the Seattle Department of Neighborhoods (DON), and the Friends of Seattle’s Olmsted Parks (FSOP). December 2016 Prepared by Dr Cathy Tuttle and Gordon Padelford Table Of Contents 1. Executive Summary 2. A Brief History of Seattle’s Boulevard System: Origins, Changes, Current Challenges and Opportunities 3. 2016 Boulevard Workshop Summary and Findings 4. Proposed Next Steps 5. Conclusion 6. Appendices of Resources Ravenna Boulevard. Photo from Google 1 Section 1. Executive Summary The Promise of Seattle Boulevards 2016 is an attempt to look at the best use of current boulevards and help to determine how they can function equitably as both parks and transportation for all. The history of Seattle’s boulevard system is closely tied to the Olmsted legacy, which left Seattle with a promise of a citywide system of linear landscapes. The idea of connecting people to the remarkably beautiful landscapes and vistas of Seattle predates the Olmsteds, and continues to this day as we evolve to meet the open space needs of future generations, preserving and maintaining design intent, while connecting people to places. What are our challenges? Our Seattle network of boulevards were not designed for the vehicle speeds or volumes typically seen today. Early boulevards were designed as slow pleasure drives linking scenic ​ resources for early-model cars on gravel-lined roads. Boulevards today often lack intended connectivity, and higher design speed limits the safe use of boulevards for family-friendly recreational purposes, particularly by people walking or biking.

  • Parks and Recreation Facilities in the Plan Area
    APPENDIX G Parks and Recreation Facilities in the Plan Area November 2014 Final Supplemental Environmental Impact Statement This appendix lists and illustrates the parks and recreation facilities in the Plan area based on available geographic information systems (GIS) data. GIS data sources were as follows: • Snohomish County • King County • Pierce County • City of Everett • City of Mountlake Terrace • City of Redmond • City of Lake Forest Park This information was not verified in the field and parks and recreation facility representatives were not contacted to determine ownership or the recreational uses associated with these resources. Over 1,300 parks and recreation facilities were listed in the available GIS database including a wide variety of open space areas, sports fields, trails, and water- oriented facilities. The park or recreation facility ID numbers in Table G-1 correspond to those ID numbers in Figure G-1 and Figure G-2. The fact that a facility is listed in this appendix is not intended to suggest that the facility is subject to Section 4(f) protection. Section 4(f) does not apply to every park or recreation facility so this list is deliberately more extensive than would be a list of resources covered by that statute (which also covers properties other than parks and recreation facilities that are not listed here). The determination of whether a resource is entitled to protection under Section 4(f) involves a number of factors including, but not limited to, the facility’s background and purpose, its significance, and whether it has been reserved for a future transportation facility.
