Roanoke Park is a neighborhood park located at 70th Avenue SE and West Mercer Way. The park's playground equipment includes ship-themed climbing structures installed in 2004 as well as swings and a Spinami installed in 2012. All structures are slated for replacement in 2024 and will be evaluated for ADA/accessibility upgrades as part of the process. Additionally, Berger Partnership, the City's consultant leading design and community engagement for early playground replacements, is developing a site concept that will include improvements to parking and new perimeter fencing.



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

    Roanoke Playground Equipment Survey

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


    The first playground scheduled for replacement is at Roanoke Park, and the community is invited to provide input about the type of playground equipment desired for the park through this 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 refined Roanoke Park playground concepts will be shared at a virtual public meeting on January 30, 2024. Learn more and follow along in the process on Let’s Talk!
