Beautiful view from the parking area up top but the actual park doesn't have very many parking spots maybe 20 at most. There is a good amount of street parking right along there though so there should never be a problem parking close enough to walk 100 feet. One of the best reasons to come is to walk down the road past the hospital towards the bridge that goes over the freeway. Can get great pictures of downtown especially around sunrise & sunset! FYI. The trails that go thru the woods below the top parking are a little iffy at best so maybe make sure u are with someone else it's also basically just switch backs straight down n then a calf burner whenever u decide to hike the short hike back to top.

The views are awesome, but the environment is not very good. It’s very close to the Pacific Medical Center, where are several homeless people. Overall it’s a quiet place to stop by and take a view of the city line of Seattle.

Probably the best dog park in seattle.sits right below the park. At night ,Its the make out spot with a head on view of the stadiums and the southern view of downtown.

This area is a little rough. It's definitely not as friendly during the night, but you can get some great shots from this park daytime or night time

It could've been a nice, small park but, unfortunately, I can't genuinely say that. The park is not maintained well and very dirty. There are trash scattered everywhere and the visitor shed is just very worn down. It smells of urine as soon as you get out of the car. Also, be careful because some people look shady and there are homeless people wandering or staying around since it's not too far off from the Jackson and 12th corner where they gather. You do get a nice view of T-mobile park, Lumen Field, and SoDo but that's just about it. It's sad to see this park dedicated to the Filipino community and I hope it gets a proper treatment and maintenance!
