Bayview Triangle

This project began as an effort to clean up this Seattle Department of Transportation property at the intersection of BeaconAve S and !5th Ave S. The negative behavior in this overgrown corner was having a bad effect on the surrounding business area.

Last December Beacon Arts partnered up with the Beacon Hill Merchants Association, the North Beacon Hill Council, the Shell Station, Baja Bistro, Lioe's Automotive, and the Department of Neighborhoods to bring some attention to this little traffic island by hanging holiday lights on a tall pine tree there.

This summer Marina King, our lead volunteer, added SDOT, Seattle reLeaf and ForTerra to out team and led a work party to clean, weed and trim the overgrown shrubs to open it up. Saturday November 22 , with financial support from DON, we will be planting flowering perenial plants to complete this first phase of improvements to this intersection.
