Discovery Park just grew in size. The City of Seattle officially took possession of the old Capehart housing development earlier this week. The former Navy housing units were demolished earlier this year (pictured below).
The Parks department is now working to turn the area back into its natural state with meadows and forest thickets. A public hearing on the work will be held November 10 from 7pm to 8pm at the Discovery Park Environmental Learning Center. To learn more about the restoration efforts, click here.
