"Jackson" Park for all

Are you tired of new light rail stations built next to golf courses? Do you wish that the light rail went to free, tree-filled parks and walkable housing instead? Send a letter to Seattle leaders about 130th/148th stations to tell them what we want! actionnetwork.org/letters/turn-j…

There are so many neighbors near this giant open space that deserve access to this land. We have to share our cities.

Everything is the same fight: the fight for equal access to public land and resources whether that is parks, entire neighborhoods/zones, or road space. Regardless of your class, past, occupation, or way you get around, we all deserve equal access to these public goods.

Another option that could be pretty quick to implement golf.com/travel/old-cou…

YES!

We need to upzone around the park for residential towers, and convert the park’s golf course into regular park features, including athletic fields as well as play areas.

Should Seattle’s Jackson Park, steps from a new light rail station, be opened to to more than just golfers? kuow.org/stories/seattl…

Walking, rolling, biking from the new 148th St light rail station to Seattle homes and businesses east of “Jackson” Park is unpleasant, dangerous, and even impossible. :( We can change this by creating accessible, tree-lined, & bird-full paths through “Jackson” Park. 🌲🦅🦆

Send a letter to Seattle city officials to tell them how much better a free, open, and transit accessible park would be. Or add your own ideas! actionnetwork.org/letters/turn-j…

Did you know that publicly-owned “Jackson” Golf Course spans about 1/3 of the entire distance between Northgate and the new 148th St stations? 😮 That’s a lot! Look for the golf course when you ride the light rail tomorrow and think of all the other amazing things it could be.

Please visit our good friends at the @jp4all_org booth tomorrow at the #ShorelineSouth station 🚉

Come stop by our table tomorrow! We will have candy, prizes, transit trivia, park designing activities, and more. We can’t wait to see you!!
