Ginger Creek Park
WHAT
Ginger Creek Park is a neighborhood amenity created in 2006 to replace an eyesore produced by trash, grime, and troublesome activities such as illegal parking. It was built by volunteer efforts of neighborhood residents. It sits on the right-of-way of the Cedar River Pipeline, a water transmission facility running parallel to Beacon Way and owned by Seattle Public Utilities (SPU). With the permission of SPU, the Association maintains the surface area as a park. NAME
Ginger Creek Park is named after Ginger Creek, a minor stream that flows northward from Cascade Park to the Cedar River, passing through the Tiffany Park neighborhood in an underground pipe. The stream is visible between Cascade Park and the exposed pipes of the Cedar River Pipeline at the southern edge of the park in Tiffany Park. |
