    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.

  • Superintendent's Report Parks and Seattle Center Committee December 15, 2011
    Superintendent’s Report Parks and Seattle Center Committee December 15, 2011 Holiday Happenings Cal Anderson Park Ice Rink. On Tuesday, December 6, in conjunction with the Pike Pine Events Group, Hunter’s Capital, Sound Transit and the Capitol Hill Chamber of Commerce, we joined Mayor Mike McGinn to open the Capitol Hill Ice Rink. The skating rink is set up on the basketball courts at Cal Anderson Park and Bobby Morris Playfield. The rink is made of a plastic surfacing made to act just like ice. It is better for the environment as it can be re-used and does not require any energy to cool and maintain. The rink will be open through December 24. Pathway of Lights. Thousands of Seattle neighbors converged on Green Lake Park on Saturday, December 10, for the 35th Annual Green Lake Pathway of Lights. This annual event includes placing luminaries around the lake, enjoying free music, hot chocolate and other holiday goodies and getting into the holiday spirit. Seattle Parks and Recreation hosts this annual event with the help of sponsors and volunteers. Argosy Christmas Ships Cruises. We will host 15 community celebrations with bonfires at some sites and hot chocolate and cookies at others for the passing of the annual holiday tradition of the Argosy Christmas Ships this month. The cruises and Seattle Parks and Recreation sponsored celebrations began November 26 and will continue through December 23. Holiday Celebrations. Community centers, pools and other facilities will hold events throughout the city to celebrate the holiday season. Events include arts and crafts festivals, tree lightings, neighborhood get-togethers and a variety of other celebratory happenings.

  • 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.
