Serves as a public park. In 1935 the area, Washington Park, 
adjacent to the Campus of the State University of Washington,

Park Board. It is to be “a state-wide institution under per-

terials contributed by the University and the City. This project 
was closed July 8, 1936, because the funds allotted were ex- 
hausted.
