PROJECT DESCRIPTION

The community hired Artist Sara Mall Johani to design and install three art components: the plaza incorporates children's games in its surface and is intended to inspire the invention of new games. Sara also sculpted a "replica" of the historic Pinehurst steam tractor that once roamed the neighborhood streets, and installed columnar basalt "mini" columns at each park entrance.

The Pinehurst Community Council nominated this park development project through the second cycle of the Pro Parks Levy Opportunity Fund. Their goal was to create "a quiet, easily accessible, pedestrian-oriented...park within the Pinehurst neighborhood."

This project developed a park at a site purchased in 2004 by Seattle Parks, with funding from the first cycle of the Opportunity Fund and the King County Conservation Futures Tax.
