About Kinnear Park Condominiums

Kinnear Park sits on the southwest slope of Queen Anne Hill in Seattle and covers an area of about 57,000 square meters. Named after the real estate developer George Kinnear, who donated two parcels of land to the city in the late 19th century, the park shapes the cityscape with its two-tiered layout. While the top of the bluff is home to a spacious meadow with open lawns, a wooded area stretches out below. The park's design, which was largely influenced by the then park superintendent E. O. Schwagerl, was later praised by the renowned landscape architect John C. Olmsted as well. The spot is especially prized for its impressive views over Puget Sound, making it a valuable example of the city's bluff parks, which are now considered a historic landmark.
