Riverview Park Devlopment
Description:
The scope of this project is to develop a fifteen acre waterfront park in the city center of Kent that will include a car top boat launch, accessible fishing area, picnic tables, salmon and wildlife enhancement/restoration areas, restroom and picnic shelter, 75 stall parking lot and trails. The Green River flows on the south and west sides of the park. The need for public acess to the Green River for fishing, car top boats, and trails is a high priority in Kent, due to few existing opportunities. There is only one car top boat launch along the river from Auburn to Tukwila, and we desperately need a second safe launch to put in, drift, and take out boats. The benefits of this project are that we will double the recreation opportunties for boat launching, accessible fishing, bank fishing.
