South Rose Hill Kirkland Walk - Jane's Walks Weekend
May 5, 2018 @ 9:00AM — 11:30AM Eastern Time (US & Canada)
One of two Kirkland walks to celebrate Jane Jacobs
DIstance: 4.5 (2.5 hours)
Join us as we discover the assets and possibilities of these neighborhoods as they begin updating their neighborhood plans for the first time in 25 years. We'll explore open spaces, amenities, community gathering spaces, and opportunities for re-development.
This walk is great for people of all ages and abilities with only a few curb step-ups and terrain that is mostly gradual downhill. Expect a common walking pace of about 3 mph. Return transportation is available for many points along the walk via Metro Transit Route 238.
The North and South walks will overlap so that both include the NE 85th Street Corridor. If you choose to participate in both walks, the combined route will be 7.8 miles (4.5 hours).
For the South Rose Hill walk (4 miles, 2.5 hours): Meet at Houghton Park and Ride. We will leave at 9 m. (Enjoy a free gourmet espresso drink, courtesy of The Neighbor Project, half-way thru this walk.) At the end of this walk, you are welcome to continue on the North Rose Hill walk, or return to the origin via a 30-minute walk.
