Seattle Parks and Recreation Installs Exercise Equipment At South Capitol Hill Parks
Seattle, WA-Seattle Parks and Recreation (SPR) is excited to announce we are moving the South Capitol Hill Park initiative forward with the installation of recreation equipment for humans and their four-legged companions at Tashkent Park, Broadway Hill Park, Seven Hills Park, Williams Place, and Thomas Street Mini Park. In June and July portions of the parks will be fenced off for installation of exercise equipment. The installation will begin on Tuesday, June 16 at Seven Hills Park. All equipment will be installed by the end of July.
The new equipment for you and for your four-legged friends is the result of the collaborative community-centered initiative for the parks in south capitol hill. SPR continues to work with residents, businesses and organizations to enhance the safety, vitality and inclusivity at these neighborhood parks.
Equipment will be installed at the following locations:
-
Tashkent Park: 511 Boylston Ave E, Seattle WA 98102
- Broadway Hill Park: 500 Federal Ave E, Seattle WA 98102
- Seven Hills Park: 1514 E Howell St, Seattle, WA 98122
- Williams Place, 199 15th Ace E, Seattle WA 98112
- Thomas Street Mini Park: 306 Bellevue Ave E, Seattle WA 98102 – dog agility equipment only
SPR would like to thank everyone who provided feedback related to their experiences and potential opportunities at these parks during our outreach sessions in late 2025/early 2026.
