Ross Park — Attraction in Seattle

I grew 2 blocks away from this park. The first time I went there I was about 3 years old and it had this large log cabin play structure that I miss to this very day I really wish it hadn't been removed from the park it was in solid shape and didn't need to be replaced with updated play ground . Ross Park was perfect the way it was but I'll always love this park it's settled in a great neighborhood in Ballard i played there and it was also where my children played oh and I forgot to mention my mother and my aunt and uncle's also grew up and played at Ross before us as well been in my family neighborhood for several decades and is still giving children and their families lots of fun memories. And I believe it will continue to do so for several more decades to come it's one ove Seattle's best playgrounds in the city I sure would love to see them restore the old lig cabin play house to the park that would be a greate thing to do for the parkand would bring lots of children more joy than the sand box that sits where it once stood.

P.s. please Seattle Parks and Recreation Bring back Ross park's log cabin structure and restore it to its original Beauty it's never been the same since it was removed.

Thank...

It was fine and clean what i didnt like was As we were parked on the east side of the park IN THE SHADE- GETTING READY TO EAT LUNCH WE HAD BROUGHT.. THE NEIGHBORS FROM ACROSS THE STREET ( WITH THE PALM TREES ON CORNER) KEOT NOTICABLY WATCHING US- even to point where he climbed down from latter and walked to corner of block staring.. And then the neighbor of his across street to west him and his girlfriend (i assume) came out..and only he walked past my car staring..JUST TO BE NOSEY AND SEE WHAT WE WERE DOING.. At that point i was pumping ( because i was away from my child) and found it uncomfortable to have such a nosey set of neighbors to which one cannot even eat without being harrased - or perform much needed and very private LEGAL actions even with sun blocker up for privacy WITHOUT NOSEY and very rude neighbors putting their noses where they dont belong! I dont understand .. They must have extremely boring lives or more so SHOULD JUST MIND THEIR...

A wonderful example of a Seattle pocket park. One of the great things about the city is the little parks all over the city.

A playground with areas for kids of different ages and capacities, baseball field and large field on a lower level. Surrounded by old trees except the ancient one they cut down which is a real shame. Counting the rings on the old tree is a nice way to practice math for the little ones and experience age of trees for older ones. Still a shame they cut it.

A great park for scavenger hunts with nooks and hiding places in old...
