Ella Bailey Park

Ella Bailey Park is a small but popular community park located in the Magnolia neighborhood of Seattle, Washington. Opened in 2007, this 2.4-acre park sits on the former site of Magnolia Elementary School's playground. The park is named after Ella Bailey, who sold the land to the city in 1929.

Despite its compact size, Ella Bailey Park offers a variety of recreational amenities for visitors of all ages. The park features a modern playground with equipment suitable for children of different age groups. There are also basketball hoops and open grassy areas for various activities.

One of the most notable aspects of Ella Bailey Park is its stunning panoramic views. Visitors can enjoy sweeping vistas of downtown Seattle, including the Space Needle, as well as views of Mount Rainier and Puget Sound. This makes the park a popular spot for watching fireworks displays on holidays like the Fourth of July and New Year's Eve.

The park's design incorporates gently rolling slopes and walking pathways, allowing for easy navigation and pleasant strolls. Picnic tables and barbecue grills are available, making it an ideal location for family outings and community gatherings.

Ella Bailey Park is open daily from 4:00 AM to 11:30 PM, providing ample opportunity for both early risers and night owls to enjoy its amenities and views.
