First Hill Park is a neighborhood park located at SE 32nd Street and 72nd Avenue SE. The playground includes a treehouse play structure and a slide that takes advantage of the site's elevation change. Design improvements will include replacing the playground equipment, resurfacing the sports court, and evaluating opportunities to improve access. The City has retained Berger Partnership to lead design and community engagement for early playground replacements and aims to construct the First Hill playground improvements in 2024.


Stay tuned to this Let's Talk page for details about upcoming community engagement opportunities and draft concepts to review.

    First Hill Park Playground Equipment Survey

    Planning work continues to replace aging playground equipment at City of Mercer Island parks, and you’re invited to get involved! 


    In 2022, Mercer Island voters approved a 16-year parks levy that continued funding for parks operations and maintenance in addition to funding playground replacements and Pioneer Park forest management.   


    Construction of the newly redesigned play area at Roanoke Park begins later this year. Now it’s time to turn attention to the second playground planned for replacement – First Hill Park. Share your thoughts about playground equipment for First Hill by taking this brief survey!


    The survey will take about 10 minutes to complete, and households with young people are encouraged to take the survey together.  


    Survey results and a refined First Hill Park playground concept will be shared online for your feedback on April 30, 2024. Learn more and follow along in the process on Let’s Talk!
