  • Go for a Hike (In the City) Healthy Environment Stories
    Go for a Hike (in the City) Healthy Environment Stories Are you looking for a place to connect with nature or just relax but can’t make a trip to the mountains? Try a trail right in the city! Seattle parks are home to some 96 miles of “soft” trails in forested, beach, bluff, and meadow areas where you can walk, hike, run, and in some cases ride trail bikes. The U.S. Forest Service has recognized trails for their recreational value since the 1930s, and for their contributions to our health and well-being since the 1960s. The popularity of trails continues to increase. They provide access to environmentally sensitive areas while protecting those areas themselves by encouraging people to stay on their groomed surfaces. At Seattle Parks and Recreation (SPR), Chukundi “Trails Guy” Salisbury has tended, created, and overseen our trails for the last 17 years. Asked what he thinks are the main reasons people use and love their trails, Salisbury says without hesitation, “to get out into the forests and green spaces of the city, to walk or otherwise exercise, and because they’re free and accessible – there are trails in parks in every corner of the city.” In 2011, Salisbury brought his brain child to life by creating the Youth Green Corps, a nine-month annual program that recruits youth between the ages of 18 and 24, trains them in trail construction and maintenance, and provides them with a stipend. Many of the youth are homeless, disengaged or from underserved communities, and the program provides them with direction, education, life skills, a love of the outdoors, and a path to a green career.

    APPENDIX G Parks and Recreation Facilities in the Plan Area June 2014 Draft 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 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.

  • 3.0 HISTORIC PERSPECTIVE on FRINK PARK “Although I Have Been Familiar with Frink Park in a General Way, in Consequence of My S
    3.0 HISTORIC PERSPECTIVE ON FRINK PARK “Although I have been familiar with Frink Park in a general way, in consequence of my study of the Park system, I visited the Park in the company of the Superintendent, and was much pleased with the romantic and secluded ravine and steep wooded hillsides, which give a decidedly marked and interesting character to this little park.” 1 - John C. Olmsted, 1906 “The desire to see the city of my adoption the most prosperous and beautiful in all things which make a city great has been my only incentive.” 2 - John. M. Frink, 1908 3.1 History and Overview of Frink and Leschi Parks & Olmsted Boulevard System Early history of the area near Frink Park indicates that Duwamish and other coastal Salish native people camped along the shore of Lake Washington in the vicinity of Leschi Park and traversed the hill to reach Elliott Bay for salmon fishing. Settlers arriving later also used this route to reach Lake Washington from Elliott Bay and for transporting goods such as coal, which arrived by barge from across Lake Washington. Later a warehouse was built on the shore for storing produce brought by farmers from around the lake on its way to market. Passenger and later car ferry service was provided from the Leschi dock.3 Platting of the land in the area began in 1883, including the land now known as Frink Park, which was platted, by Judge Thomas Burke and his wife, Carrie E. Burke. He reserved the steep slope area naming it “Washington Park.” In response to the growing demand for transportation to the lake especially in the summer, the Seattle Construction Company built the Second, Mill & Jackson St.

  • 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.

In 1999 it was discovered in the Seattle area, and we are working closely with landowners to keep it from spreading. Without cooperation we will lose the battle to keep garlic mustard out of woodland areas throughout Western Washington. Please report all sites to the King County Noxious Weed Control Program. Plant Description: A biennial herb growing to 3 feet tall. In early spring the roots and new leaves smell like garlic. The small, white flowers have 4 petals, 4 sepals and 6 stamens.
