Nantes Park

A Sister City Connection

Nantes Park is named after Seattle's sister city, Nantes, France, reflecting the cultural ties between the two cities. This small neighborhood park offers a quiet retreat for local residents in the West Seattle area.

Park Features

The park features a compact layout with some basic amenities for visitors to enjoy. It includes a short walking path that allows for a brief stroll through the green space. Several benches are scattered throughout the park, providing spots for rest and relaxation.

The park is characterized by its big trees, which offer shade and contribute to the natural ambiance of the area. An open lawn area provides space for various casual activities, making it an ideal spot for picnics or simply lounging on a pleasant day.

Recent Improvements

In recent years, there have been efforts to enhance Nantes Park. Plans have included the addition of a paved looping walkway and the installation of art pieces that symbolically connect Seattle's Nantes Park to the Jardin des Plantes in Nantes, France.

These improvements are intended to strengthen the park's connection to its namesake city and provide additional interest for visitors.
