Though Seattle Parks had said this wouldn’t happen until tomorrow, they just confirmed the fence is down at the new Myrtle Reservoir Park today, so it’s officially open to the public, albeit, Parks had warned, in “soft-open” mode (aka, today, soggy open).

Nice – but I wished they had buried the water tanks like at Cal Anderson Park on Capitol Hill.
