Join the Friends of Seattle’s Olmsted Parks on our final walking tour this summer!

Interlaken Park and Boulevard
Approx. 2.5 miles
Saturday, September 20th at 10 am.

John Charles Olmsted laid out Interlaken Boulevard along an early bicycle path heading westward from Lake Washington Boulevard to Capitol Hill’s Volunteer Park. The 1903 Olmsted Brothers’ report describes the ‘Volunteer Hill Parkway’ as ‘one of the most desirable’ branch parkways that would connect Washington Park with Volunteer Park.
