A 2-acre City of Seattle right-of-way and parking lot are poised to become the new entrance to Myrtle Edwards Park and the waterfront connection to the proposed Olympic Sculpture Park (OSP). This city waterfront property--now asphalt and parking meters--will make way for expansion to the existing Myrtle Edwards Park and create an anchor for new passive recreation in downtown Seattle, just 3 blocks from the Seattle Center. Scope of work includes a 700 foot extension of both a 10 ft wide pedestrian boardwalk and a 12 ft wide bicycle trail that currently end abruptly in the parking lot, native plant landscaping, signage, lighting and park furniture, water fountain and vastly improved water access--all ADA accessible. An underground parking garage beneath the pavilion elsewhere on the OSP site and additional metered on-street parking compensate for lost parking lot. A grassy berm for seating and informal gathering at the water's edge will provide a seamless connector between popular Myrtle Edwards Park (400,000 visitors/year) and the new OSP. In 2000, the Mayor and City Council appropriated $2.0M for improvements to this waterfront parcel. Also, the Seattle Arts Commission is providing a donation in excess of $1.6 million for the construction of this park site.
