Morgan Junction Park Addition
Updated: January 15, 2019
Winter 2018/19
Seattle Parks and Recreation purchased this .28-acre in 2014 to provide the community access to open space within this high density urban area. The Seattle Park District funds the development of this parcel into a park addition. Seattle Parks and Recreation will work with the community to develop the design for the park. Please participate in the public process as we work together to design your park spaces.
Planning for this project is beginning and the first public meeting and open house happened on June 16, 2018 at the Morgan Junction Festival. Thank you to everyone who attended and offered ideas for the development of the lot right next to Morgan Junction Park.

Project Description
In 2014, Seattle Parks and Recreation purchased the .28-acre property at 6311 California Ave SW, north of Morgan Junction Park, to expand the park and provide additional open space for this high-density neighborhood. The design will incorporate accessibility in compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and additional park elements will be incorporated after gathering public input. We anticipate construction and completion by the end of 2020.
The addition parcel will not be accessible during construction.
