A grassroots, community-led project to create a permanent pedestrian plaza at the heart of Queen Anne.
Where is it located?
The future Crockett Plaza is located on the half block between Queen Anne Avenue and the alley to the west, between Menchie’s and Big Max Burgers.
Meh.
Better.
Why Crockett Street?
We tried it already…and people loved it.
It is at the confluence of public life on Queen Anne.
We have already decided this is a special place, a fact that’s reflected in the built environment.
There are no driveways
It’s not a freight route
It’s not a transit route
It’s not an arterial
It’s not a through-route for cars
Adjacent buildings are occupied 24 hours per day, providing “eyes on the street.”
Why don’t kids play outside anymore?
Look at the outside we built…
Cities around the world are putting pedestrian streets at the center of neighborhoods.
What is Queen Anne Greenways?
We are a community group active since 2012.
We advocate for walking, biking, transit and people-oriented places on Queen Anne.
We value health, safety, equity, and sustainability.
