About:
The Recreating Henderson Street corridor project is a street design effort for and by the Rainier Beach community that will create a vision and improvement plan for S Henderson Street. Here is a YouTube link to an aerial flyover of the corridor.

The Recreating Henderson Street Project Team is engaging with residents, students, businesses, property owners, organizations, artists, and everyone in between to gather ideas and input to recreate S Henderson Street as a beautiful neighborhood street that reflects community values, history, and identity. This corridor runs east and west to connect the Rainier Beach light rail station to Be'er Sheva Park and Lake Washington.

Project Goals:
  • Activate and enhance spaces along S Henderson Street for community and recreational opportunities
  • Create a safe and vibrant cultural corridor that represents the diversity of Rainier Beach
  • Feature art by neighborhood artists and youth
  • Engage community, businesses, and property owners in the street design process

Public Meetings and Survey:
Our first 3 public meetings were held earlier this year. If you missed them, never fear, the presentation slideshow and draft designs from the latest meeting on September 2024 can be viewed here on Google Drive.

We would like to build on what you love about S Henderson Street! Your feedback will help shape a new design and street improvement plan that centers the Rainier Beach community's needs and priorities.

Your participation and input is incredibly valuable! This short one-page survey gives you the option to leave some brief feedback and should take about 5-10 minutes to complete. If you have extra time and wish to leave more detailed feedback, you may instead take a longer version of the survey here. Your responses will be anonymous in both surveys.
