Not so long ago, Crown Hill Park was nothing but a field. Seattle Parks worked with the community to develop this empty field into an appealing space for our neighborhood to enjoy. Before the park was built, neighbors attended sessions [...]

Not exactly the conversation you'd expect on a mild and sunny Saturday - but a very important one. In [...]
