New Park Completed
There’s a new addition to the list of panoramic views in Seattle. Ward Springs Park is complete. Residents of the Ward Springs area of Queen Anne teamed up with the city’s Parks and Recreation and Neighborhoods Departments to create this brand new park with sweeping views of the city from a high-density, single and multi-family residential area. A grand opening ceremony was held on
Saturday, June 1, 2002.

| PROJECT DESCRIPTION |
| The project is a great example of volunteerism and community building in action. Park volunteers donated their time and talents to turn site of a former SPU pumping station into a community jewel. They did most of the labor and worked tirelessly to get grants from several foundations and corporations, plus funding from the Department of Neighborhoods and the Pro Parks levy. |
