Seattle Parks Foudation
Seattle Parks Foundation has launched a $20 million capital campaign to develop 12 acres of green space in the heart of the city into a magnificent waterfront park. Identified 100 years ago by the Olmsted firm as ideal for an urban waterfront park, the property was acquired over the past 20 years and with investment of City funds totaling over $17 million. Today, neighborhood residents, businesses, area stakeholders, and City government have all given the park unanimous support. When completed, South Lake Union Park will become a regional destination by providing our growing city with water and green space access, connecting Seattle's neighborhoods, and celebrating the cultural, industrial, and maritime heritage of the city and the region. To date, Seattle Parks Foundation has raised $13.5 million in private funds toward its $20 million campaign goal
