Description:
This project will renovate the existing spray pool at North Lynnwood Neighborhood Park, which was acquired and developed with IAC/LWCF funding in 1969 and 1971. The 35-year old spray pool needs to be replaced as it does not meet current safety and accessibility standards. The existing concrete surfacing is cracking; elevated concrete structures are hard, slippery and dangerous; concrete curbing limits accessibility; constant maintenance is required; and there are potential liability hazards. In spite of its deteriorating condition, the spray pool is wildly popular in the summer. North Lynnwood Park is located in a residential neighborhood and adjacent to an elementary school, however the spray pool serves the entire east half of the city, a population of approximately 20,000. During the summer months, the spray pool is heavily used with an estimated 150-200 users per week. Birthday parties, summer camps and family outings are planned around it every weekend. Innovative and thematic new aquatic playgrounds have been designed to replace the existing spray pool to increase playability, improve safety and access. High quality and low maintenance materials will be installed. The new aquatic elements are ground-related, programmable for interactive use and designed for all ages. A new in-ground system will replace existing outdated equipment that is in constant need of repair. The new aquatic playground will be completely ADA friendly and compliant.
