Interlaken Stairs are Open!

December 17, 2018 by Greatneighbors 1 Comment

Burn off those holiday calories and take a walk on the new Interlaken Stairway connecting Interlaken Blvd and Boyer Ave E at E Howe Street.  You can also bring your bike and try out the new runnels on the stairway.  The newly opened connection is thanks to funds from The Seattle Parks and Recreation Activating and Connecting to Greenways program, in partnership with Seattle Department of Transportation.

Many thanks to Project Manager Mike Schwindeller who creatively resolved many design challenges and Park Staff members Michael Shiosaki, Frank Cammarano and Karen O’Connor for hosting a great celebration.  Special thanks to Ngoc Ngyen for the great photos.

Go take a walk!

    Congratulations on the completion of the staircase! For the last 7 years, our little loosely organized group has been very active to try and improve the walking situation and mitigate traffic impact in and around Montlake. We have enjoyed some success using various city programs, and garnering support along the way from Parks, SDOT and Neighborhoods as well as from the Parks and Walking and Bicycle advisory boards and commissions. But, in the end, our success is a reflection of the leadership we have provided. This last project enjoyed strong leadership from Barbara Wright with support from Brie Glyncid and Merlin Rainwater from Capitol Hill. Barbara is also trying to improve further the connection to the Arboretum multi-use trail. I have stopped my involvement, Rainer Metzger has moved on and John O’Brien is busier than ever. I’m hoping that new volunteers with new ideas will emerge and contact John, Barbara and the Montlake Community Club to carry on the work. Lionel Job
