Mount Baker Park Public Restroom
Updated: February 4, 2025
Early 2025
In the summer of 2020, the City of Seattle turned its focus to essential functions to address the pandemic and economic crisis, which required a significant reprioritization of resources. Seattle Parks and Recreation (SPR) suspended many capital projects including the two Mount Baker Park Improvement Projects below. Funding for these projects is identified in the 2022-2027 Adopted Capital Improvement Program for Parks and Recreation.
Please view the project design rendering here and watch the video below to learn more about the planned restroom.
This Seattle Park District project provides a new restroom at Mount Baker Park and closes the existing restroom building. SPR is evaluating if the new facility will be pre-engineered or a customized building.
The proposed new structure will include two unisex facilities, each with individual access. All will be located and designed to meet Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and safety standards, and intended to serve the children's play area and other park users.
During construction, the contractor will need to close the construction area within the park. This may impact the play area. SPR and the contractor hired for the project will work to minimize the impact on the neighborhood.
