$4.6M Yesler Park will bring active and quiet spaces to a growing neighborhood

The city of Seattle plans to start construction in late March on the 1.7-acre Yesler Park at Yesler Way and Broadway on First Hill.
It is evaluating five bids it received this week from contractors for the park, which is slated to open in summer of 2018.
The park will overlook Puget Sound and downtown Seattle, with a fountain play area, small soccer spot, large open field, playground, restroom, public plaza and a grand pedestrian spine stepping down the middle of the sloping site to South Washington Street.
To take advantage of the site’s unique 25-foot grade, the playground will have a slope for people to climb or slide down.
