Rules and Regs at Shilshole

We have many new tenants here at Shilshole and thus, many questions regarding waste oil disposal, batteries, subleasing, parking, etc.  Answers to these questions can always be found on the “More Info…” tab at the top of this page.  Please take the time to read each of the Port of Seattle documents as they will answer many of your questions.  Thanks.

Golden Gardens closing at 10 pm

Seattle Parks has (finally) moved the closing time at Golden Gardens from 11:30 up to 10pm.

This time change is intended to help mitigate an increase in public safety issues and illegal activity at the park, including acts of violence, excessive noise violations, illegal fires, illegal parking, unpermitted events, and blocked access for emergency vehicles.
