This field trip pairs a unique local learning experience that celebrates the great outdoors with the opportunity for students to enjoy themselves sans certain traditional school rules, such as “use your indoor voices,” and “no running.” West Seattle is well- known for the miles of shoreline dotted with distinctive rocky beach habitats. Each June, the shores of Alki and Beach Drive swarm with throngs of excited students, parents, and teachers running and shouting as they explore the low tides of early summer. West Seattle Rocky Beach Field Trip student West Seattle also has a rich historical legacy. There are many historic sites and persons associated with West Seattle or the West Side; this is a perfect opportunity to identify the area’s important cultural and historical heritage. The Duwamish Tribe has called this land home for thousands of years and this region has been identified as the one of the first areas settled by the early pioneers. Alki Beach is recognized by historians as “the birthplace of Seattle.” Learning about the unique history of this area of Seattle will introduce and validate the significance of preserving the rocky beaches and shorelines for their historical value as well as their ecological importance. 3 Leave No Stone Unturned: History Lessons for West Seattle’s Rocky Beaches The Southwest Seattle Historical Society’s (SWSHS) Log House Museum is located one-half block south of Alki Beach in a century-old log structure that once served as a carriage house for a large family estate near the beach. The Log House Museum houses exhibits that share the unique history of West Seattle and its distinctive neighborhoods. Trained docents are on hand to interpret the artifacts and stories featured in the museum exhibits and on the grounds for school tours, as well as individual visitors. Log House Museum near Alki Beach In 2003, the SWSHS education staff developed an award winning guide for children, teachers, and parents called Welcome to the Green Land: A Children’s Activity Guide to the Alki Area of West Seattle. This project provides simple activities relating to the history of individual sites and locations and can be used to complement a field trip to the beach. This project has been aligned to meet elementary level EALRs, including Social Studies. A CBA bridging document makes the activity guide even more valuable for educators. Several relevant activities related to the history of the beach from this book have been included as pdf files in this on-line file. The book, in its entirety, is available through the Log House Museum Gift Shop located at 3003 61st Ave. SW in West Seattle. The SWSHS heritage education activities also include outreach resources such as Traveling Education Trunks, a Reader’s Theater based on the landing of the Denny Party, and on-site activities such as a student Heritage Library and a Youth Docent Program. All of these activities were made possible through funding from Heritage 4Culture over three individual funding cycles. More information about the many heritage opportunities and programs at the Log House Museum can be obtained by visiting loghousemuseum.org. 4 Leave No Stone Unturned: History Lessons for West Seattle’s Rocky Beaches LEAVE NO STONE UNTURNED: History Lessons for West Seattle’s Rocky Beaches How is the beach significant to the history of Seattle?

    BUSINESS IMPROVEMENT AtARE Work in SeattleAS A guide to the legislation and strategies for its use SEATTLE OFFICE OF ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT’S ONLY IN SEATTLE INITIATIVE This publication is an outgrowth of the Business Improvement Area (BIA) Assistance Program. Part of the Seattle Office of Economic Development’s Only in Seattle Initiative, the BIA Assistance Program provides training and technical assistance to business districts throughout the city in forming, managing, and updating Business Improvement Areas. For more information about Only in Seattle or the BIA Assistance Program, contact the Office of Economic Development at [email protected] or 206.684.8090 or www.seattle.gov/economicdevelopment. Spring 2012 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY EXECUTIVE SUMMARY What are BIAs? BUSINESS IMPROVEMENT AREAS (BIAs) are funding mechanisms for business district revitalization and management. Specifically, the mechanism is an assessment collected from businesses and/or properties within defined boundaries. The funds collected are used to provide services for the mutual benefit of the businesses and properties being assessed. The concept of business district management funded through mandatory assessments has been around for many years, and gained wide popularity during the 1990s. Under one name or another, well over 1,000 such districts exist throughout the United States, with many more in Canada and throughout the world. BIAs include programs and services such as marketing, public area maintenance, security, parking, streetscape improvements, and professional management. Each BIA has a ratepayers advisory board made up of ratepayers within the BIA boundary. Creating a BIA In Seattle, BIAs are enacted by the City Council, using the authority of state law (RCW 35.87A) and the city charter.

  • Early Scoping Summary Report
    Early Scoping Summary Report April 2018 West Seattle and Ballard Link Extensions Summary Purpose Sound Transit conducted early scoping for the West Seattle and Ballard Link Extensions (WSBLE) Project in Seattle, Washington, from February 2 through March 5, 2018. The early scoping started the public planning and environmental processes for the project. This report describes how Sound Transit conducted early scoping and summarizes the comments received from local and regulatory agencies, tribes, and the public during the early scoping period. This information will be considered by Sound Transit as it identifies and studies alternatives for the WSBLE Project. The Early Scoping Process Sound Transit published an early scoping notice in the Washington State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA) register on February 2, 2018, which initiated early scoping and started the 30-day comment period. Additional public notification was provided with mailed postcards, print and online advertisements, and social media notices. Three public open houses and an agency meeting were held during this comment period, as well as an online open house from February 12 to March 5, 2018. Sound Transit requested comments on the purpose and need, the Representative Project, other potential alternatives, and potential community benefits and impacts. Comments were accepted by mail, email, online comment forms, and on comment boards and maps at the open houses (both in person and online).

  • Context Statement
    CONTEXT STATEMENT THE CENTRAL WATERFRONT PREPARED FOR: THE HISTORIC PRESERVATION PROGRAM DEPARTMENT OF NEIGHBORHOODS, CITY OF SEATTLE November 2006 THOMAS STREET HISTORY SERVICES 705 EAST THOMAS STREET, #204 SEATTLE, WA 98102 2 Central Waterfront and Environs - Historic Survey & Inventory - Context Statement - November 2006 –Update 1/2/07 THE CENTRAL WATERFRONT CONTEXT STATEMENT for THE 2006 SURVEY AND INVENTORY Central Waterfront Neighborhood Boundaries and Definitions For this study, the Central Waterfront neighborhood covers the waterfront from Battery Street to Columbia Street, and in the east-west direction, from the waterfront to the west side of First Avenue. In addition, it covers a northern area from Battery Street to Broad Street, and in the east- west direction, from Elliott Bay to the west side of Elliott Avenue. In contrast, in many studies, the Central Waterfront refers only to the actual waterfront, usually from around Clay Street to roughly Pier 48 and only extends to the east side of Alaskan Way. This study therefore includes the western edge of Belltown and the corresponding western edge of Downtown. Since it is already an historic district, the Pike Place Market Historic District was not specifically surveyed. Although Alaskan Way and the present shoreline were only built up beginning in the 1890s, the waterfront’s earliest inhabitants, the Native Americans, have long been familiar with this area, the original shoreline and its vicinity. Native Peoples There had been Duwamish encampments along or near Elliott Bay, long before the arrival of the Pioneers in the early 1850s. In fact, the name “Duwamish” is derived from that people’s original name for themselves, “duwAHBSH,” which means “inside people,” and referred to the protected location of their settlements inside the waters of Elliott Bay.1 The cultural traditions of the Duwamish and other coastal Salish tribes were based on reverence for the natural elements and on the change of seasons.
