Just don't bring it up - getting to the bottom of Carkeek Park
Carkeek Park, filled with its forest of trees and brush, is one of the best places to get out of town. But the park that hides you from the city is also hiding a part of the city from you. A concentrated, repellant part, unmentionable in polite circles, locked behind a door and obscured by sword ferns. Unfiltered Ballard pools there, in all its pungent glory. The legend is that the nose never forgets the smell of raw sewage. It wasn't the kind of thing I wanted to know about. But I had to ask.
The question; what is the deal with that place?
