Lakeview Park Play Equipment Replacement

The City of Burien replaced 20-year-old playground equipment and associated park furnishings at Lakeview Park in 2025. The project was completed and playground reopened for use in March 2025.

Background Information

Before gathering community feedback in spring of 2024, City staff worked with a playground equipment manufacturer on the final design for the primary play feature and incorporated secondary play toys as space and budget allowed.

Construction began in fall 2024 and was completed in spring of 2025.

The new equipment was replaced within the same footprint as the previous equipment and has play features for the 5- to 12-year-old youth age group. The equipment for the 2- to 5-year-old age group was installed in 2019 and was not due for replacement.

This project is funded by the City of Burien and King County Community Development Block Grant funding provided through the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development.
