Please join us on Thursday, April 25 from 6 to 8 p.m. at the Good Shepherd Center located at 4649 Sunnyside Ave N, Seattle, WA 98103.
Seattle Parks and Recreation (SPR) invites the community to help shape conceptual designs for the play area at Meridian Playground. Meet the project team at our public meeting to learn more about the project and provide input on desired improvements.
This project aims to make site improvements to the play area located within the western half of the former Home of Good Shepherd property. Most components of the play area were constructed in the early 1980s, and revised in 2002, and some equipment was replaced through a Neighborhood Matching Fund project in 2011. Several elements/features within the play area such as existing play equipment, art paving, play area ramps, custom-made v slides, and rubber tiles need to be renovated or replaced.
