Our community has two new rolling vistas to enjoy—one by foot and one by skateboard. Just before heading up the hill to visit the Seattle Chinese Garden, stop at the Delridge Skatepark on the corner of Genesee and Delridge Way.
Local skateboarders worked with
Seattle Parks and Recreation and
Grindline Skateparks Inc. to build the 13,000-square-foot park which features a deep egg-shaped bowl and a large flow bowl. What's unique about this particular skatepark is the flowing street course design which meanders through the large trees on site and around the bowls. Teens from the Service Board worked with artist Pat Davidson to put their stamp on the park through a glass mosaic mural on the benches overlooking the rolling expanse of concrete.
With the recent grading and seeding of the stretch of earth behind Knowing the Spring Courtyard one mile up the hill from the skateboard park, West Seattle will soon have another rolling expanse to enjoy—only this time on foot. When the grass grows here, the rolling hills and grassy terrain behind the main gate of the courtyard will be the ideal place to fly a kite, have a picnic and enjoy the view.
