Garfield Park Playground Renovation

The City of Everett plans a renovation of the Garfield Park Playground at 2300 Walnut St. in 2026, responding to the playground's outdated condition. City officials have determined that the existing structure has outlived its life cycle, necessitating a fresh approach to the play space. The renovation will feature new materials and equipment, enhancing safety and inclusivity for children. Importantly, only the playground area will receive updates, while other park amenities will remain unchanged.

The City is actively seeking community input to ensure the design reflects local needs and preferences. Residents can share their thoughts on various choices, such as surfacing types and playground features, by completing a survey available until August 15. This project highlights the City’s dedication to improving recreational spaces for families and children. Engaging the community in the design process underscores the importance of local voices in shaping public amenities.
