Join the EBCA and Feet First for a lively neighborhood walk through Ballard that explores urban greenspaces of all shapes and sizes, through a mix of residential blocks, commercial pockets, and the historic industrial core. This two-hour walk will start at 14th Ave NW and NW 70th Street (come early for coffee at Honore Bakery!), where we’ll look at the location of a future ‘Parklet’. Speaker stops along the way include the present and future greenway, micro-housing and urban density, raingardens, transit, a SNAP emergency HUB, and the Ballard Open Space plan. The tour will end at the Reuben’s Brews taproom in industrial Ballard. Metro Rapid-Ride a block away provides a bus link back to the start.
