    WHERE DOES SEATTLE’S CREATIVE COMMUNITY GO FOR INSPIRATION? Allow us to introduce some of our city’s resident artists, who share with you, in their own words, some of their favorite places and why they choose to make Seattle their home. Known as one of the nation’s cultural centers, Seattle has more arts-related businesses and organizations per capita than any other metropolitan area in the United States, according to a recent study by Americans for the Arts. Our city pulses with the creative energies of thousands of artists who call this their home. In this guide, twenty-four painters, sculptors, writers, poets, dancers, photographers, glass artists, musicians, filmmakers, actors and more tell you about their favorite places and experiences.

Lying at the tip of Seattle’s crescent on Elliott Bay and thrusting westward into Puget Sound, this promontory commands dramatic views up and down the Sound and across the water to the snow-covered Olympic Mountains. The seclusion of the site, the magnificent vistas, the stretches of tidal beaches, the stands of native trees, the meadowlands---all combine to make this site, its potential is bounded only by the vision and resolution of those into whose hands it is entrusted.

    Discovery Park: a People’S Park in Magnolia

    Discovery Park: A People’s Park In Magnolia By Bob Kildall Memorial to US District Judge Donald S. Voorhees Authors Note: Before Don died he asked me to say a few words at his memorial service about Discovery Park. After his death July 7, 1989, Anne Voorhees asked me to help in a different capacity. This is the speech I wrote and later used at a Friends of Discovery Park memorial service and in a letter to the editor. Discovery Park is his park—that we all agree. He felt that Seattle would be known for this Park—like London is known for Hyde Park; Vancouver for Stanley Park; San Francisco for Golden Gate Park and New York for Central Park. It was a difficult task. The Department of Defense wanted an anti-ballistic missile base and the ABM headquarters for the entire West Coast located here. Native Americans claimed the property. We didn’t have enough money to buy the land and no federal law allowed excess property to be given for parks and recreation. A golf initiative proposed an 18-hole course. And Metro had its own plans for the Park’s beach. The missile base was moved. A treaty was signed. A federal law was passed. The golf initiative failed. And even Metro studied an off-site solution first suggested by Don. He named the park “Discovery” partly after Capt. George Vancouver’s ship. But even more “because when our children walk this park, discoveries will unfold for them at every turn.” History, beauty, nature and the future are melded here.

    Indigenous People and the Transformation of Seattle's

    05-C3737 1/19/06 11:43 AM Page 89 City of the Changers: Indigenous People and the Transformation of Seattle’s Watersheds COLL THRUSH The author is a member of the history department at the University of British Columbia. Between the 1880s and the 1930s indigenous people continued to eke out traditional livings along the waterways and shorelines of Seattle’s urbanizing and industrializing landscape. During those same years, however, the city’s civic leaders and urban plan- ners oversaw massive transformations of that landscape, including the creation of a ship canal linking Puget Sound with Lake Washington and the straightening of the Duwamish River. These transformations typified the modernizing ethos that sought to improve nature to ameliorate or even end social conflict. The struggle of the Duwamish and other local indigenous people to survive urban change, as well as the efforts by residents of nearby Indian reservations to maintain connections to places within the city, illustrate the complex, ironic legacies of Seattle’s environmental his- tory. They also show the ways in which urban and Native history are linked through both material and discursive practices. Seattle was a bad place to build a city. Steep sand slopes crumbled atop slippery clay; a river wound through its wide, marshy estuary and bled out onto expansive tidal flats; kettle lakes and cranberried peat bogs recalled the retreat of the great ice sheets; unpredictable creeks plunged into deep ravines—all among seven (or, depending on whom you ask, nine or fifteen) hills sandwiched between the vast, deep waters of Puget Sound and of Lake Wash- ington.

    Impacts of Habitat Restoration and the Status of Avian Communities in Seattle City Parks CJ Battey • Toby Ross © TOM SANDERS © DOUG SCHURMAN © TIM BOYER Anna’s Hummingbird Lesser Scaup © DOUG SCHURMAN © DOUG SCHURMAN Yellow Warbler Yellow Heermann’s Gull Bottom left: A volunteer engaged in the Neighborhood Bird Project at Magnuson Park counts gulls and waterfowl on a platform in Lake Washington. BACKGROUND The Neighborhood Bird Project (NBP) is a citizen science initiative that began in 1994, conceived, developed and managed by the Seattle Audubon Society. The NBP has two main goals; the first to monitor trends in avian abundance in Seattle City parks and green spaces. The second aims to empower citizens in becoming advocates for birds and wildlife habitat in their neighborhoods and communities. Monthly surveys are conducted by teams of volunteer bird watchers who conduct surveys at eight King County parks and green spaces – Carkeek Park, Golden Gardens Park, Discovery Park, Seward Park, Genesee Park, Washington Park Arboretum, Magnuson Park and Lake Forest Park. The data from these surveys provide an insight into the avian diversity and abundance in urban areas and affords an appreciation of the diversity that can be found in cities given appropriate quality habitat. Introduction City parks present a unique opportunity for public communities, the Seattle Audubon Society started the engagement with nature, as well as providing habitat Neighborhood Bird Project (NBP) in 1994, with a series of for wildlife and ecosystem services for millions of urban volunteer-led surveys in Carkeek Park. Surveys have since residents.
