Delridge Skatepark update: Construction expected next month

New information about the next big Parks project to be built in West Seattle, Delridge Skatepark: Project manager Kelly Davidson says West Seattle-headquartered Grindline has been officially awarded the contract (in the second round of bidding, they were the “apparent low bidder,” at $483,000, but nothing was final till a process, detailed in our previous report, was complete). Davidson says construction will get the green light once the Notice to Proceed is official, and the tentative date for that is April 11th. So far, no formal groundbreaking ceremony is planned – once they’re ready to start, they’ll start If that timeline holds, and summer weather is normal, she says the skatepark at Delridge/Genesee (map) should be ready to open in early September.
