Community Affairs and Parks Committee
FROM: Bob Giberson, Public Works Director
By: Ryan Larson, Senior Program Manager
DATE: July 19, 2013
SUBJECT: Duwamish Gardens
Project No. 90630102
30% Design Plan Update
ISSUE
Review the 30% Duwamish Gardens' project design.
BACKGROU ND
The City acquired the Duwamish Gardens site in 2008 for future restoration as a salmon habitat site with minor
park elements. The project is currently in the design phase and staff is in the process of obtaining all construction
permits to clear the site of existing structures and secure construction funding. Construction is anticipated to begin
in spring of 2014, provided that permitting is completed and all construction funding can be secured.
The design is being led by the City's design consultant, J.A. Brennan. Project plans were presented to the City in
June for 30% of the design and the consultant is preparing 60% drawings that will be available in early September.
ANALYSIS
The 30% project design is based on information received during the cultural resources investigation, site
characteristics, and meetings with stakeholder groups including city staff, Tukwila Parks Commission, Sound
Transit, permitting and granting agencies, interested citizens, the adjacent property owner, and tribal interests, The
various stakeholders recommended the following criteria:
• Maximize the availability of wetted habitat area
• Protect identified cultural resources
• Design the site to minimize future maintenance of habitat features
• Provide public access across the entire site and to the water
• Provide interesting interpretive elements throughout the site to draw the public in. These elements could
include a signature art piece at the far side of the site, interpretive art throughout the site, natural stone
benches with engravings, signs, or stamped concrete.
• Provide onsite parking
Minor layout revisions are anticipated for the 60% design to further increase habitat areas that will include:
• Removing one view point and moving a section of the trail further north
• Moving the trail end back approximately 30 feet
• Ending the trail at the river's edge to reduce environmental concerns
RECOMMENDATION
Information only.
