132nd Square Park: A New Community Hub in Kirkland

132nd Square Park, located in Kirkland's Evergreen Hills/Kingsgate neighborhood, has been revitalized with several new features, including the city's first synthetic turf playfield, inaugurated in 2023. This multi-purpose field accommodates various sports and includes a smaller grass field for baseball and softball. Designed for inclusivity, the park features an all-abilities playground with a zipline and a reflexology path promoting relaxation and well-being. Year-round restrooms and three picnic shelters make the park a family-friendly destination. The Free Play program allows residents to enjoy unstructured outdoor activities, fostering community engagement.

With options for field rentals and picnic area reservations, the park serves as a venue for gatherings and events. Public art, including a notable sculpture titled 'Individually We Transform, Together We Soar' by Cobalt Designworks, adds artistic flair to the park. These enhancements reflect Kirkland's commitment to providing recreational spaces that promote health, wellness, and community pride.
