Resources on Lake Union

 

Below you will find various resources that relate to history, data, and research of Lake Union and its surrounding shorelines.

History of Lake Union

 

Field Notes: Observing Lake Union is an audio tour of the Cheshiahud Lake Union Loop, created by the Studio for Urban Projects, that explores how changing conceptions of nature, and our place within it, have shaped Seattle’s Lake Union over the last two hundred years. The piece focuses on the underlying ecology of Lake Union and its transformation through eras of geologic change, Native American stewardship, European settlement, commercial industry and large-scale infrastructural development as well as urban planning and park design. The project probes the complex interplay between human values and natural ecologies that have shaped Lake Union today.

FONLU has participated in past Seattle Park(ing) Days during the middle of September. Park(ing) Day is an opprotunity to temporarliy occupy an on street parking space for a day and to create a public space. Our goal is to demonstrate how much public space is devoted to cars in our communities. We occupied a parking space on 45th Ave in the Wallingford Neighborhood and created a fun gaming table. FONLU is commited to creating more public spaces for the community to enjoy. Park(ing) Day program is run through the Seattle Department of Transportation.
