New Maple Leaf Reservoir Park Meeting - Save the Date

Some of you may remember my previous post about the art installation project being planned for the future Maple Leaf reservoir park.  For those not in the know, let me catch you up to speed. Seattle Public Utilities decided to cover all remaining open reservoirs in Seattle with an underground structure to improve the security and quality of the city's water.  The "reservoir lid"is covered with soil, grass and plants to make it a public green space.  In the case of the Maple Leaf reservoir, it will seamlessly fit in with the adjacent playground adding 16 acres of green space. 

Friends for a Greater Maple Leaf Park is inviting the whole community to come out to the next park planning meeting happening on Thursday, April 22nd. The Parks Department will present draft designs in order to get feedback from the public. For those interested in attending, the meeting will be held at Olympic View Elementary (504 NE 94th) from 6:00 to 8:00pm.
