Hing Hay Park RestrooRenovation
Updated: April 30, 2025
Spring 2025
This project is a collaboration between Seattle Parks and Recreation (SPR) and Seattle Chinatown International District Preservation and Development Authority (SCIDpda). The work consists of building a public restroom, a Parks concierge station and a storage space within the Bush Hotel which is operated and managed by SCIDpda. SCIDpda is in the process of conveying two suites within the Bush Hotel to the City for building of those facilities. Given the time elapsed between prior in-house design review cycles and resuming project revisions in 2023, the design consultant achieved final design stage in February 2024 when the design package was shared with SCIDpda. The project has two construction phases, phase Iis managed by SCIDpda to renovate the suites inside the Bush Hotel to become “Tenant-ready” and to complete the conveyance of the two suites to the City. Phase II is managed by SPR to implement the rest of the tenant improvement work which includes the public restroom, concierge station and the storage space.
The SPR public restroom facility will be located in the northeast area of the park at the plaza level of the Bush Hotel. The restroom will be open to the public when a concierge is present at the park.
