What's the Benefit ? Traditional Cache

This park in South Beacon Hill was dilapidated and prone to vandalism until Friends of Benefit Park formed in 2002 to create a safer, more open green space. Seattle Parks Foundation provided Friends of Benefit Park with fundraising support and technical assistance through every step of the process, from selecting a landscape architect, to coordinating the complete renovation of the park. Today the park has been improved with a new children's play area, walkway around the perimeter, leveled basketball court, landscaping, and picnic shelter. The tremendously improved Benefit Park was dedicated in May of 2005.
