Sandel Park play area renovations complete

March 31st, 2011 · 4 Comments

The Seattle Parks and Recreation yesterday reopened the play area at Sandel Park, after extensive renovations.

Neighbors of the park, at North 90th Street and 1st Avenue NW, first proposed the renovations, and received a Neighborhood Matching Fund grant to begin designing it. The 2008 Parks and Green Spaces Levy paid for the final design and construction.

The play area is much larger than before, with more play structures, and an accessible pathway that runs around it and up to the northwest corner of the park.

Orange fencing remains in place on one side to keep people from walking on the newly-planted grass.

    It looks great! Finally, I can take the kids to the park that’s walking distance from our home.

    Thank you neighbors!

    I was there last night with my girls soccer team practicing and the draw was very demanding before and after practice. Nice work, Sandel really needed this update.

    Thank you neighbors!

    Excellent! Will the wading pool be functional this summer?
