Gas Works, c. 1966

The Seattle Municipal Archives have uploaded another cool photo to the Wallingford Flickr Pool, this one of Gas Works, c. 1966.

The city acquired the land in 1962, but it wasn’t opened as a park until 1975.

I started Wallyhood back in 2008, right when my son was born, because I realized I had lived in the neighborhood since 1993 and didn't really know my neighbors. I figured writing a blog about what was going on around me would be a good way to meet people and help other people do the same. As the years progressed, those neighbors have picked up the torch and it is now a group effort, which I adore. I moved out of Wallingford for a few years (2020 - 2025), but I'm back, now living with my wife, son and dog (Dillinger) up in Tangletown.

    Now, how cool is that? I mostly think that things are not getting better, but Seattle has really turned around a toxic site to a place that we all love!
