The new totem pole by Haida carver, Fred Lauth, features three “watchmen” at the top, seen as symbolic eyes on Baker Park, playing a role similar to that of watchmen on other Haida poles.

About

Baker Park renovation opened in 2020. Seattle Parks and Recreation bought the property southeast of the park, expanding it by .23 acres. The expanded park offers many features, including a new play structure with butterfly wings component, swings, large open lawn, a picnic area with BBQ, fitness equipment, and a totem pole plaza. The new totem pole by Haida carver, Fred Lauth, features three "watchmen" at the top, seen as symbolic eyes on Baker Park, playing a role similar to that of watchmen on other Haida poles. All improvements were made to meet Americans with Disabilities Act standards.

Baker Park is one of 14 pesticide-free parks in Seattle.
