Beautiful park. It is a must visit if you come to Seattle. I was here during covid for he first time but I still enjoyed this area. Tons of great stuff to do around too. Would recommend coming here

Very cool park where the equipment are the sculptures. Each piece of equipment being more or less tagged by graffiti in some way, but this has great industrialist vibes that would surely make Ayn Rand blush. With that said, she’d probably cringe at the small homeless encampment inside of the pavilion.Other than that, great views of Seattles skyline and a stunning place to visit on a clear day!

Great park. Amazing views. Easy walking paths and spectacular scenery.I did see used needles in the mens urinal though, so beware.

Great view of the skyline of Seattle! I spent a couple of hours at the park with my family last week. My son enjoyed playing on the playground and throwing rocks in the water. I do have to say the park does have a graffiti problem and there is a homeless community that lives there in tents.

Interesting way they took an old 19th century gas refinery and turned it into something not only picturesque but usable. I enjoyed the brightly colored piping. And the interesting architecture that was still up. The View on the top of the hill is spectacular and you can see the entire Seattle skyline. Theres a large amount of geese, so be careful, geese arent always the nicest and they leave a lot of excrement around.

Its a great place to go and unwind.Feed the ducks, watch the actionon the river, see the City of Seattle,people watch, and strike up a friendlyconversation with those who will.It was very peaceful and enjoyable.

Perfect place for picnics and get togethers. You can get your own tents, chairs etc and set up a nice barbecue. The lake is beautiful, you can even rent a boat if you like. Alcohol consumption is illegal, although Ive seen people drink but discreetly.Tip: dont forget to eat a blanket, the park is filled with dried poop.

Beautiful park! Reminded me of the green pastures found in the Shire. I could have spent the whole day exploring and going on different adventures. Highlight: seeing the bison. What a magnificent species! Must come back with Frodo one day!

If you just want to chill with friends or your family, this is a great place. You also get a great view from the park. And its also a plus to know that its where they shot the paintball scene from 10 Things I Hate About You.

Visit Seattle this park should be in your to go list, serene calm waterside sit out. You can picnic , bike or just relax under open sky. Parking is easy to find and best view is Seattle skyline.

Amazing place to just chill and hang out.I recently look my family here and my boys loved it. Views on a nice day are spectacular!!!

Cool spot with amazing views of the city! Lots of space to hangout and sit (next time Id just bring a blanket.... because...geese).

A decent place with a decent view. Good time to visit this place is early morning or in the evening. You can bring your pets and/or children and I guarantee that theyll have a great time here. You can see the space needle as well as lots of boats in the lake. And if youre lucky you will also be able to see some goose on the grass. Overall a decent place for a small picnic.

On a clear day, there is a fantastic view of downtown Seattle skyline from Gas Works Park.

Beautiful park in Seattle. Go for the views of the Painted Ladies, the Victorian Houses on the one side, stay for the beautiful views and the very serene feeling you get in the park. Lovely on all sides.

Very interesting park, good place to exercise. Best views of Seattle.

A great weather makes a visit to this just wonderful! It has sufficient parking space outside. Nice place to just hangout with family/friends and enjoy the scenery. It also has a play area for kids. We also saw a few people engaged in a photo shoot. All in all, visiting this place will not disappoint you.

Picturesque park! So green n so blue :) a breath of freshness in center of downtown. Neatly maintained though you will find poop all around :D plenty of space for parking as well. just be careful of leaving anything which is visible from outside of car. Rest is good. They have a kids playing area as well.

Beautiful views even on a cloudy day !!Has less parking. Difficult to get any parking on weekends. The swings are very nice. Good variety.Lots of running, walking, jogging area. Pets welcome here.Didnt go to the bathroom here, but there is one I was told

Great place to visit if you are in Seattle. Beautiful view. Easy to find parking spots. Place to eat lunch or play around. Metal factory remaining give unique look and feeling to park

Amazing park, bathrooms were nasty and homeless people seemed like they owned one part of the park. Other than that, the park had an amazing viewpoint over the waterfront of Seattle. Playground was new, little to no trash at the park. Overall good feel and a good sight to go to on a sunny day.

The best park in Seattle! Easy to park and perfect place to take pictures for any special occasion. Im from Seattle and this place is just so unique and fun. So many memories here. Classic landmark for my beautiful city.

Too many bird xxx . Nice to take a walk

We like a lot here. It took 10min to drive here from where we live. It’s a perfect place for walk after dinner and enjoy views of the city.Ins: @yuranzh copyright reserved.

Really cool park, surprisingly cool. Its great for all ages. Theres a playground for kids, bathrooms, picnic spots, scenic views, dog park and lots of room to lounge on the grass. You can also rent water sport things such as paddle boarding. Bring a blanket to sit on though! Theres lots of goose poop on the grass so youll want something to sit on. Great spot for a date.

I love this park! Its an old refinery thats been repurposed into a beautiful park on the north side of Lake Union with a fantastic view of the Seattle skyline.

Really love this place. Good for taking friends, kids, or pets. Possible to find space alone to sit. Lush green fields when in season. Some hills but there are paths for convenience. I brought a Frisbee.

It’s pretty much the best spot for enjoying the fireworks along with the Seattle city skyline. However, this place will get really crowded during any types of the events. Hope they can build more public restrooms and public parking. Great location in general to relax during the day as well. Highly recommended!!!

Lots to do here! Walk for hours, play ball with the pups, kayak and get wet. Watch boaters go by or join them.

A perfect park for a picnic. The view of the city here is awesome. Bring a blanket and enjoy!

Gas Works Park is a beautiful park that is great for running or walking, especially when the Seattle skies are sunny. It has some interesting structures to look at, and honestly I dont know whats going on at this park... but its all about the view. Theres a short, grassy hill you can climb up to get an AMAZING view of Seattle. Its perfect for a jog, hanging out with friends, a romantic picnic date, reading a book, or contemplating life. As it looks over a sliver of Lake Union, you can watch crew (rowing) practicing. Its a very soothing place to be.

We love gas works! It’s a really great park with plenty of space to run and picnic. The views never get old! Usually a good amount of wind for kite flying and gets really busy at night before sunset. Also bring a blanket there is Goode poop everywhere

Gas Works is a great little park looking out over Lake Union. It gives an excellent view of Seattles downtown and is a perfect place to catch a Washington sunset as it dips behind the Cascades.

Great place to stop by and watch people kayak Lake Union, watch the sun set, or just chill. Theres also a real nice park for the kids if you need that. Also does have public bathrooms!

Great first time experience on New Years Day. Great view and nice play area for kids. The structures for display are not for climbing tho. I appreciate that they have recycling bins. Ample parking and clean park. They do have some picnic tables.

The park has a cool industrial vibe to it and a great view of Seattle, would definitely come again!

A must stop for getting the city skyline in the photo along with some water shots. Beautiful views on top of a well built hill. Easy to get up using the sidewalks leading to the top. Park is great for pictures and has a playground for kids.

Beautiful spot for photography. Excellent view of downtown Seattle across the water. Climb up kite hill or walk around looking at the rusting tanks of a bygone industrial site.

Amazing place to take pictures. A little sketchy at night. But beautiful view and structures.

Beautiful art pieces to grab good photos. Beatrice view as well!!

Really photogenic park, especially on a good day. Tricky by public transport. We got off the bus in Fremont and walked along, but it was a nice flat walk and beautiful weather. The park is super exciting as you walk in and see the Gasworks structures themselves. Theyre fenced off but you can get great photos over the fence if you climb to the top of the grassy hill. Bonus of doing this is theres a beautiful view of the city.Expect to be mobbed by geese, but theyre a friendly bunch.

Loved it! Gas Works Park definitely an interesting place and worth a visit. You could do what I did and take a Seattle downtown tour on a de Havilland Beaver seaplane @ Kenmore Air on Lake Union then visit Gas Works Park. Pacific Inn Pub in Fremont isnt far from Gas Works Park - you could stop in for fish & chips, too.

Wonderful park area for relaxation!Open to water view (Lake Union), with many places to sit and talk. Mostly hills with green grass.Be prepared with some mats/cloth to sit on, and comfortable cloths for sitting and playing.Parking area is not large but fits most of the visitors cars.Old gas plant pipes and machinery are good things to photograph.At sunset, you may get the most wonderful pictures ever to the building on other water front (South Lake Union) with sun light reflections.The only drawback is the rest rooms need more attention!!

Unique spot. The remaining structures and tools are pretty amazing to see. Lots of space to run around, play with friends, or just lay back with a book.

Wonderful park in Seattle. During COVID, parking is closed but the park is open to pedestrian. Great area to walk around and its near the water if youre wanting to kayaking after.

Place to visit in Seattle with guess or to just spend an afternoon picnic by Lake Union! All of the fun architecture in the whole place is a great way to spend a sunny day . You could do this park in as little as 10-15 minutes or as long as an hour or two

Near to my home. Happening.. you will love to watch kites flying in the sky and the beautiful downtown and south lake union view.. great place for picnic, also has kids park.. perfect place for your weekend.

Great place to relax and watch the skyline while boats sail by :) Picture taken by my Nikon DSLR

Industrial outdoor area, so much room for activities! Playground for the kids, right on the water with probably one of the best views of the Seattle skyline. Places nearby to kayak or bike around and a lot of nearby bars and restaurants.

It was a beautiful, sunny day in Seattle after a surprisingly snowy February. There were tons of people at Gas Works, even a few Girl Scouts with those wonderful cookies, folks playing frisbee, and a number of photo shoots. Despite the crowd, there was still plenty of space to have a nice spot to chill with loved ones. Always a lovely time here.

Really nice place to spend some time outdoor over the weekend. There is a beautiful view of Seattle. Gas Works park contains remnants of the sole remaining coal gasification plant in the United States. this park has several pieces of an old plant. Some stand as ruins, while others have been reconditioned, painted, and incorporated into a childrens really cool playground.

Beautiful views and fun place to hang out or play with your dogs, SO, kids (in that order). All outdoor so just make sure the weather is nice. Theres also some small places for food within a 5 min walk, so this can be a whole afternoon trip. Also good date material.

Has play area, lotsOf room to run and play, many things to see including boats and planes taking off on the water and also good view of downtown Seattle. Has an excellent play area for kids

Great view of Lake Union and the city. Great for a short walk and picnic.

A really nice place to sit and relax. Awesome view of the Seattle skyline and views of South Lake.

Man oh man, I can be here for all day long and just look at the town across. So peaceful and cheerful. The gas tubes at the end of the park make the setting almost surreal. You can see people doing yoga at one corner of the park , kids cycling , etc. will love to visit again.

Quintessential Seattle. People meet here at all times of day for picnics, kite flying, dance meetups, band practice, flow arts, workouts, weddings. Always something here you wouldnt expect to see.

Restoration of the Hermitage changed it from a historical Gran Dame to an overdone Hollywood starlet. The bumps and bruises on Gas Works Parks attractions are what gives it character. If you clean up something too much it undermines the overall effect-the gestalt- of the object. Please keep the patinated charm of Gas Works Park.

Great park with a nice view at the city, weird industrial sculptures. Close to hwy 5, in case u just passing by the city on your way south or north. Several cool eateries close by, just google, or use old fashion feet, eyes, and brain.

Great blend of old and new. Awesome area unique to Seattle. Great views of the city, incredible. Some of the playground equipment is for 5 & under but this is unclear and in metric. Why? Also absolutely wonderful local art.

360 pano sunset views of the city on the water. I mean.... How could you not give it 5 stars?

Coal Gasification Plant turned steam punky playground! Gas Works is a really fun place to visit and interesting to consider its history. I love the decision to maintain these structures as pieces of sculpture and intrigue.There is easy, free parking. Theres a play park for kids with some really fun equipment, a water-side walkway, and a large hill with a viewpoint of downtown across the water. Definitely stop by if youre in the area or try to make it to an event there.

Very interesting and a neat unique park. Hard to get over the feeling my kid might need a tetanus shot when you see it all, but liked the uniqueness of it

Gas Works Park is amazing!On a clear day you have great view of the city.Theres a little hill were you can sit and enjoy the view. Very family friendly.I highly recommend visiting the park!

Great view in a sunny day, not so much during other weather. It’s more of a place for locals to relax, bringing friends, families, pets, and picnics.Not an amazing choice for tourist attraction with unique landmark features. Walked it over with a few photos and you may quickly lose interest.

Probably one the most iconic parks in Seattle and with free parking and access from the Burke this place is a must see for anyone visiting or living in Seattle. It offers expansion views of the Seattle downtown and South Lake Union. A great place for meeting and enjoying lunch or dinner on a warm sunny day.

What a nice public park in the heart of downtown Seattle. Very nice setting. Its perfect for photo shoot , with full seattle skyline in background and play area for kids this is must go in any season. Limited parking spaces are available.

Beautiful scenery! Very popular. Tons of people and dogs!

One of the great parks in Seattle to capture amazing photos of downtown! A little too far to be captured with a smart phone camera but definitely worth it if you have a lens with a good zoom. Beautiful green grass and plenty of dogs out for their daily walks - bliss

Super cool park. My boyfriend loved it! Really good to take photos here. We saw multiple planes land on the water and take off from the water which was super neat. We’ve never seen that before! #shelbieandhercompass

Another great place to visit in Seattle. Can relax, walk, run, have a picnic or just hang around with locals. Great place to go with children and pets. Have bathrooms, a beautiful view and a solar clock.

My kids love to bike at Gas Works Park. This place is family friendly and fun to visit all year round.

I did not expect this interesting park in busy seattle. easy parking in the morning n the seattle skyline view from the little hill is cute. there is a playground that toddler n up age kids can enjoy. surprisingly, lots of parents were there by 9am. people r friendly.lots of green grasses with flock of geese. people r walking, jogging, biking, photoshooting.most r flat walking path, so should be fine with strollers. partially, might be uneasy with wheelchairs.

This park used to be a fun family place but its just ok now. There are homeless living within the machinery and so much goose poop you cant barely find a place to sit on the grass that isnt covered.

I like these park there are lot of free space , site seeing is really nice , it’s perfect place to click photo , view is nice with flight landing in the water and old gas plant and kids park.

Best place to see seattle downtown from long view

This park is absolutely stunning! This is a perfect spot for a picnic, date, wedding, play date with the kiddos, kite flying, or just hanging out. Its incredibly touristy, but worth it. Such a gorgeous walk getting here from Lower Queen Anne (about 3.8 miles).

Great place . A little dirty and lots of good sites

What used to be an old oil refinery was turned into this wonderful downtown park in Seattle . Perfect place to come during the summer or any time of year to wander around walk the Dog climb up hills and enjoy a 360 degree panoramic view of Seattle one of the best in town. Gas Works Park is of course the perfect place to watch the fireworks show Over lake Union on 4th of July. The only one drawback is I wish there was more parking.

Iconic park with great skyline views of Seattle. Usually filled with tourists and local families using the playground. Its a great place to take photos and see all the old machinery, often there are alot of people taking professional photos using it as a backdrop. But keep in mind, its not the cleanest park and mind the geese droppings that are everywhere.

Beautiful park! We hit it right at sunset, so the sights were wonderfully peaceful. My husband and I are from south central Texas, so we dont get to see views of water too frequently, especially not with a clear view of downtown. Such a great gem in Seattle, and were glad to have stopped here. :)

A wonderful community park in the heart of the city on the northern coast of Lake Union, it boasts spectacular views of the whole lake, all of downtown, and the surrounding neighborhoods. This lovely park is fun for the whole family or a romantic place for a picnic with a view.

Had great view of Lake Union, and a small area for kids to play around: slides and jungle gym, but it is a bit too industrial and there are very little areas to sit and enjoy the view.Maybe because the day I went it was crowded, the small shop in the park is not a great shop. Wanted to purchase some things and the attendant was on the phone while I was trying to order.

Breath taking view of Seattle and surrounding area. Good sized kids play area. The building on site houses the old machinery of the parks name and history.

Super cool park right on the water, superb views of the city and just a breath of fresh air. Love this place and I think anybody wanting to get away from the hustle and bustle and enjoy the water should come here

A very big park on Lake Union with astonishing view of Seattle gives an edge to this park, there is childrens playground, picnic spots, bike and running trails as well as hills to do uphill downhill run or bike ride. There are occasional activities keep happening in this park but it is most famous for 4th July fireworks.There are remains of Gas works machineries for anyone to explore how heavy equipments look like.Restroom and potable water on site. Plenty of Parking spots in the lot as well as street side and its free.

They left the old oil machinery and storage here and let the park grow around it which is super cool. They have a ton of green grass and you can walk right up to the water as well. Super pretty views. Float planes landed and took of multiple times while I was there too!

Easily the best park in Seattle but always very crowded on nice days! Be sure to check out the playground and undercover area!

5/5 for city parks. Panoramic view of the water to watch boats cruise and planes land. Scenery, multi colored machinery and strange hills make this place unique.

Fantastic view of downtown Seattle. pictured is a ham radio club social net

Chill place with walking/biking trails that has great views of the skyline, along with the old gas pipes to look at. A great local place to hangout in Seattle!

This was a fun park to visit, the kids loved it. There was a lingering smell of weed in the air everywhere and geese poop all over the ground but once you get over those things it was great. A scene from Ten Things I Hate About You was Shot here where they have the paint guns.

One of the most beautiful parks Ive been to. The view of the bay is amazing! The gas works are nice to look at too. Theres a large hill that overlooks the park with amazing views, and walkways close to the waterfront. Plenty of people relaxing or playing with their dogs. If youre visiting Seattle, you definitely have to visit here, especially if the weathers great!

Very beautiful park with a historical gas factory and perfect view to Seattle downtown. My wife and I really enjoyed visiting this park. Especially the great Fourth of July fireworks.

Beautiful park with views of Seattle skyline. Such a creative use of old industrial setup. Love how this park is rustic and fresh at the same time. Easy parking right outside the park, a big play area for children, picnic tables and not so clean restrooms.

Its a beautiful of the city skyline! A lovely spot to sit and watch fireworks or just read a book.

Interesting park.Great view of the lake and the city from Kite Hill.Great place spend the day with family and friends.

Great park, considering that it is in the middle of the city. Beautiful skyline.

Gorgeous overlook of downtown Seattle with rustic old machinery in the background. The park allows you to see the bay, the buildings, and the bridge. Its beautiful. There are numerous telescopes which provide a better view of the innercity. It is a popular place, so parking might be difficult on weekends and nights, and it likely wont be a quiet spot.

Good place to take a stroll. Good view of the Seattle skyline from here.
