Cal Anderson Park Development
- Status
- Funded in 2001
This project is a cooperative effort by the neighborhood community, Seattle Public Utilities, and Seattle Parks to redevelop and double the size of a heavily used urban park. The existing park, though worn, is popular because a large number of residences, day care facilities, schools, and businesses are located nearby. This project implements a state public health requirement to lid reservoirs. The current open-air reservoir will be replaced with a new underground reservoir with park land extended on top of the lid—a four acre increase of useable park. Phase 2 work includes a new univeral access children's play area, grass lawns for informal recreation, walking/jogging paths, a gazebo, interpretive signage, site lighting, underground drainage, park furniture, and extensive landscaping with irrigation.
Location
From I-5 take the James Street Exit. Turn right on James and head east until you reach Broadway Avenue. Turn left and head north until you see 11th. Turn right and head toward Pine Street. Park is just on the corner.
