Seattle Parks and Recreation invites the community to discuss the site improvements proposed by Cascade Bicycle Club near Building 11 in Magnuson Park during a public meeting on Tuesday, Nov. 17, 2015. The meeting will be held from 7-8:30 p.m. in the Belvedere Terrace Room at The Brig in Magnuson Park, 6344 NE 74th St.
The Cascade Bicycle Club is a long-term partner in Magnuson Park. The group is proposing to construct:
- Wood post and beam canopies on the east and west sides of Building 11.
- Building 40 (Paint Shop) renovations for bicycle repair and storage.
- A planter wall to capture groundwater seepage from a hillside retaining wall.
- A traffic garden layout for conducting safety classes in a portion of the west alley.
Almost 15 years ago the North Shore Recreation Area Master Plan proposed habitat and boating facilities. Those were constructed in 2006 and included a pedestrian-bicycle path to Sand Point Way NE. Between 2011-2013 major improvements were constructed in Building 11, including an upgraded electrical system, ADA ramps, fire hydrants and a boat trailer turnaround. Since then long-term partners Seattle Waldorf High School, CBC, and Sail Sand Point have completed major renovations.
