International Children’s Park Renovation

An HSD funded grant went to Friends of the International Children’s Park to restore existing art and structures in the park. The main restoration was the park’s dragon designed by Gerry Tsutakawa. The dragon is a very iconic and treasured park piece. The renovation benefited young children and families in the Chinatown-International District. For more information and photos, please visit:

Storefronts Seattle

Storefronts Seattle began in early 2010, when members of Seattle’s historic Pioneer Square and Chinatown-International districts sought solutions for the growing number of vacant storefronts in the area. The program was initiated to provide temporary, rent-free display spaces for local artists, revitalize blank windows and empty storefronts, and ensure foot traffic, attention and maintenance to these buildings. HSD provided the essential funding for this dual community project.
