Thursday evening is the final meeting for the 9th Ave NW Park design process.
During the last two meetings, held in November and December, community members met with SiteWorkshop and discussed ideas for the 39,000 square foot space. During the last meeting, SiteWorkshop showed neighbors five concepts that they had come up with, from formal gardens to informal playspaces (shown above).
Tomorrow evening, the design team will be back with their preferred design that the community can help tweak. The meeting will be held in the Whittier Elementary cafeteria (1320 NW 75th St) from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m.
The 9th Ave NW Park is located on 9th Ave between NW 70th & NW 73rd St. Construction is expected to begin in August of this year, with a completion date sometime in spring of 2011.

What we need in this park is an $800,ooo biosphere and eco-training center for future enviro-warriors. All neighborhood sewers and waste should be directed into creating a biofuel energy source for our intrepid bio-Ballardites who will lead us into pure, zero carbon footprint future.
The “Ballard-Sphere” will help create an ecologically perfect system integrating all living beings and their relationships, including their interaction with the elements of the lithosphere, hydrosphere, and atmosphere.
Word.
Most peeps on here would insist that there be no homeless either.
