After much excitement, construction of the dog off-leash area at Magnolia Manor Park is set to?start Monday, September 10.? The park?will be?closed??six to eight weeks?during construction.? All heavy equipment will be stored inside the park, which will be completely fenced off and locked during construction, to conserve money and keep the public safe.
Stay tuned for a re-opening ceremony, as well as volunteer opportunities to stain fencing, spread bark chips and plant shrubs.? In the meantime, click here for updates and more details.
In other park news, Friends of Magnolia Manor Park say construction of the P-Patch is still on schedule for this fall after Seattle Public Utilities moves some fences.? Estimated completion for Phase 1 of the P-Patch is the end of 2012.? Gardeners?could be?digging in the dirt in early 2013.
I think I’ll call it Poo & P-Patch Park or the Triple P Park 😀
