City Seeking Proposals For Magnuson Building Spaces


A neighbor would like to share this information from Seattle Parks and Recreation:

Seattle Parks and Recreation seeks proposals for the redevelopment of the Building 47 Theater at Magnuson Park. Proposals are due Wednesday. 
Building 47 was designed and constructed as one structure in 1941 and the building currently contains the theater, a decommissioned indoor swimming pool room, and the Magnuson Community Center. This Request for Proposal (RFP) package seeks submissions regarding the theater and the indoor swimming pool sections of the building only. 
The theater contains approximately 9,130 square feet of space, including a main floor, lobby, stage, lower level (green room), mezzanine and balcony (including projection room). The indoor swimming pool room contains approximately 5,640 square feet of space.    
Parks is seeking proposers who can make a significant capital investment in exchange for a long-term agreement. Proposals should include the management and operation of arts, theater, and film and/or cultural programming that will be open to the public. SPR does not have designated funding for this redevelopment; therefore, proposals should also include a well-defined funding plan to upgrade the building to meet all current code requirements.

 
For more information or to download a copy of the RFP packet, go here.

Celebrate International Migratory Bird Day Tomorrow At Magnuson

 

 
Tomorrow in honor of International Migratory Bird Day, Magnuson Park is having an event called "Migrate to Magnuson Park"  sponsored by Seattle Parks and Recreation, Magnuson Community Center Nature Programs and the Magnuson Environmental Stewardship Alliance.

The information says:
Bring your family to learn about amazing birds that travel thousands of miles each year to Seattle.
There will be guided walks, habitat bingo and other family-friendly activities beginning at 10 a.m. at the Magnuson Community Center (7110 62nd Avenue NE) 
Talks will be given by renowned bird experts Idie Ulsh and Dennis Paulson.  Go here to sign up for free bird walks and activities.


The Society for Ecological Restoration Northwest Chapter is also having bird walks as part of the celebration which can be found here.

The information says:
Sign up for these is limited, over the 2-3 mile distance some of the walking between points of interest will be a fairly quick pace, and focus will be more on ecological restoration of the park than on birds alone.  They will cover parts of the park less well known than the main wetland area.  Much of this restoration has been done by community based volunteers.
There is also to be at least one additional free walk in the Promontory Point Section of the park from 10-11 which will start from the educational pavilion located on the west side of the park’s most southeastern parking lot (southwest of the boat launch)  and also some shorter ones and other events centered around the community center on 62nd Avenue NE.
