| PROJECT DESCRIPTION |
In September 1999, Seattle’s City Council approved
amendments to Seattle’s Comprehensive Plan for North Neighborhoods, including
a recommendation that the Golden Gardens Bathhouse be renovated, and that
effective programming be developed for its users. A 1995-96 study, funded
by Neighborhood Matching Fund and the Ballard Advisory Council examined
how the building could accommodate programming for teens. Other educational
and community activities will also be served by the renovated building.
Parks and the Project Advisory Team completed the planning and design phases
of this project in 2003; construction was completed in June 2004, funded
by the Pro Parks Levy Fund. Parks program areas served by the renovated
Golden Gardens Bathhouse include:
- Teen programs in the arts, recreation, and music.
- Environmental education programs focusing on the marine and terrestial
environments at the beach.
- Enhanced, year-round foodservice at the Bathhouse.
- New outdoor areas for both highly physical and contemplative uses.
- Uses, including rental of spaces for private events, that capitalize
on the regional popularity of Golden Gardens Park to make the Bathhouse
a community gathering place, offering a variety of activities that engage
all citizens.
