Skyway Park is a 23-acre park in unincorporated King County. It is located in a valley that feeds Lake Washington via Taylor Creek in Deadhorse Canyon. It contains three designated wetlands areas. In fact, much of the history of creating the park is a process of filling in the "bog" to create usable playfields.

The Friends of Skyway Park Google group was a separate place to discuss issues related to annexation, until November 2009. Visit the archives of this group. It contains some good information not found on this page.

In 2008, a community planning process, part of King County's Community Enhancement Initiative, created the Skyway Park Community Vision planning document through a series of meetings facilitated by Pomegranate Center (external).

You can read about that year's activities on the Skyway Park Improvements page. Highlights include:

• History
• Photos

2009 was also a busy year in the park. More on that later. For now, read the descriptions in King County's page.

2010 doesn't look to be a slow year, either. More on that later, too.
