Wedgwood Landbanked Site Park Development

Summer 2019

Thank you to everyone who attended the June 29 open house to learn about this park development and provide input! The preferred design that was displayed is attached below in the Community Participation section.

Have an idea for what to name the park? Please submit suggestions for park names in writing by Thursday, September 12, 2019, and include an explanation of how your suggestion matches the naming criteria. The Park Naming Policy, clarifying the criteria applied when naming a park, can be found here. 

Please send  name suggestions to Seattle Parks and Recreation, Parks Naming Committee, 100 Dexter Ave. N, Seattle, WA 98109, or by e-mail to paula.hoff@seattle.gov.The Parks Naming Committee will consider all suggestions and make a recommendation to Seattle Parks and Recreation Superintendent Jesús Aguirre, who will make the final decision.

Thanks also to everyone who came and participated in the design discussion on April 3rd. We appreciate all your input on the three design concepts. For those of you who were unable to attend please see concepts and meeting notes below.  And to those who participated in Public Meeting #1 on February 25, 2019. The input received informed the overall design for the park. 

And of course, thanks to all who participated at the Wedgwood Community Picnic, on September 15, 2019. Many community members came to discuss hopes and concerns for the park as well as express their enthusiasm that the project has been funded. This information was passed onto the design consultants.
