Construction Notice Pedestrian Park and Senior Center Plaza

Issaquah, WALocal News

In Olde Town Issaquah, construction will commence in December 2024 for the Pedestrian Park and Senior Center Plaza projects, with completion anticipated by summer 2025. This extensive renovation aims to create a vibrant community gathering space, featuring a new water feature, improved seating options, and public art installations. The enhanced plaza space will facilitate gatherings and events, with a pavilion and flexible seating arrangements. However, the construction will lead to the temporary closure of the Pedestrian Park and the south entrance of the Senior Center, along with the Veterans Memorial Playground. Residents should prepare for impacts on parking and pedestrian access, with construction hours set from 7 a.

m. to 6 p. m. It's recommended to use alternative parking areas, while ADA parking will still be accessible. For further information or concerns, residents can reach out to city officials or the project manager.

This initiative reflects the city's commitment to enhancing public spaces and community engagement.
