About the Location
Hidden Urban Spot
Positioned in Northeast Seattle, University Lake Shore Place is a pocket-sized natural haven that might just surprise you. At just 0.15 acres, what this green space lacks in size, it makes up for in tranquility.
The park's defining feature is its wooded slope that gently rises above the Burke-Gilman Trail, creating a natural backdrop where the trail runs alongside Riviera Place NE, just south of NE 125th Street.
A Breath of Fresh Air
Despite its compact footprint, this little spot provides natural vegetation that creates a green buffer between the trail and the neighboring residential areas, offering a brief but welcome nature break for trail users and locals alike.
The native plants here do not simply look pretty - they're quietly supporting the local ecosystem right in the middle of the city.
Behind the Scenes
Like other public spaces in the area, this little touch of nature is maintained by the Seattle Parks and Recreation Department, ensuring it remains a pleasant spot for all who pass through.
