	ParentMap - Park Hopping
		A favorite place for neighborhood picnics, Cowen Park ravine was especially appreciated by parents for being a place where keeping track of young children was relatively easy: The steep ravine walls formed a natural barrier between the park and nearby streets.
		Cowen Park is one of those rare Seattle spots that seem to hold sunlight even on gray days.
		Neighbors, however, refused to abandon the spot, forming the Friends of Cowen Park.

	Seattle Parks Department Project Update
		The Cowen section will be managed with other Pro Parks improvements in Cowen, and addressed separately from the Ravenna segment (although of course we will maintain coordination between the two projects).

	E. O. Schwagerl and Seattle Parks
		Ravenna, Cowen, Woodland, Green Lake, and Discovery Parks in north Seattle, and Kinnear on Queen Anne.
		Seattle's parks should include what Schwagerl called "attenuated parks"—strips of land "…skirting possibly a shore with its driveway, fringed by a forest, a wood or a cliff." To connect the parks, Schwagerl proposed a system of boulevards, which were to be entirely different than typical city arterials.
		Seattle's founding mothers and fathers, entrepreneurs, city officials, neighborhood activists, and landscape architects of international renown all had a hand in creating local parks.

		Situated Southeast of downtown Seattle, in the Rainer Valley part of town, Seward Park is a large peninsula which juts out into Lake Washington.

		The surrounding Green Lake Park is a popular spot for qigong classes, roller hockey, soccer, and baseball.
