Seattle’s New Beach Parks Open

Seattle’s Elliott Bay waterfront just got a major upgrade with the reopening of two new parks—Myrtle Edwards and Centennial Park—offering a serene, nature-filled escape unlike the bustling downtown shoreline. Spanning 16 acres and stretching over a mile, these parks feature sandy beaches, woodlands, and meadows, creating a fresh connection between the city and the water. Funded entirely by private donors including Melinda French Gates and MacKenzie Scott, the $100 million Elliott Bay Connections project was originally timed to host the FIFA World Cup and is now a vibrant new hub for recreation, with locals already biking and relaxing along the scenic paths.
