Title
English: Kinnear Park, Seattle, ca. 1898
Description
English: Kinnear Park is located on the southwest slope of Queen Anne Hill, near Smith Cove. In 1889, George Kinnear gave the park to the City of Seattle for one dollar. Over the next ten or so years, the city built paths and flower beds, and added seats and a pavilion. Landslides plagued the lower part of the park until the 1920s, when Smith Cove was filled in.

This Anders Wilse photo shows the paths, seats, and gardens at Kinnear Park, sometime between 1897 and 1900. The park was a popular place for picnics, concerts, and community gatherings.
