Neighborhood Safety Program ​
​

We have one eligible project being considered for Kirkland's Neighborhood Safety Program grant. The proposal is to add a crosswalk at Marina Park on the North side that leads to the steps to Central Way. See the red "X" in the photo to the left.

​A volunteer panel will evaluate the projects and make recommendations to City Council, who will decide which projects will be funded in April 2018.

Information about the program can be found on the City's website. ​ ​​

Crossing Kirkland Event Recap

It was great to see many neighbors at Kirkland's first annual Crossing Kirkland event on the Cross Kirkland Corridor on September 9th. The event consisted of activity stations and food trucks spread out along the trail, each station hosted by a neighborhood. There were seven neighborhoods that participated along the trail, including Moss Bay, Everest, Norkirk, North Rose Hill, Highlands, Finn Hill, Evergreen.

Some of the activities included a scavenger hunt, rock wall, arts and crafts, picture booth, and games. The Moss Bay station included vintage fire trucks, games, Art Cart provided by the Kirkland Arts Counsel, informational booths, and food trucks.

The City Manager, Kurt Triplett, was the driver that shuttled people from one place to another during the event. Also during the event, a mural was unveiled along the trail. The mayor and city council members were all in attendance for the mural installation along with the members of the cultural arts commission.

The idea for the event came from the City-hosted "For the Love of Kirkland" workshop, designed to strengthen neighborhoods and enhance our sense of community. If you would like to contribute your time or talents to volunteer for next year’s event, please reach out!

Developer Activity Update
  • Kirkland Urban (at the location of the former Park Place) – development continues, at this point there is not a known estimated time of completion of the first phase. For more info, see www.kirklandurban.com from time to time to see info and updates about the retail, office and residential development.  
  • Village at Totem Lake – not in our neighborhood but important to the entire city - some stores are now open, notably Trader Joes, Nordstrom Rack, Ross, Wells Fargo, Key Bank and AutoZone.  Opening soon are Whole Foods, MOD Pizza, Chipotle, Cycle Bar, AT&T & Verizon. For more info, see www.thevillageattotemlake.com. Phase II of this project is in the permit application stage of the process at this time.
  • Park Lane Apartments – at the site where the Antique Mall was, right next to the Heathman Hotel – likely will be completed in the spring of 2018. This will be 128 apartments. As for the ground floor, no word yet on tenants although I’ve heard from more than one source that it’s likely that a bank will be moving in at the ground floor.
  • Aegis Assisted Living – at 1006 Lake St S – continues in the Design Review process with its next DRB meeting scheduled for December.

Kirkland Downtown Association

The Kirkland Downtown Association (KDA) sponsors many of our favorite events, including the Wednesday Market, the Classic Car Show, Summerfest, and much more.

​Supporting KDA benefits the Moss Bay neighborhood in several ways:
  • ​volunteering at KDA events counts towards our matching grant volunteer hours
  • help downtown businesses thrive
  • keep our neighborhood vibrant and attractive

​KDA has created a membership program for both residents and businesses, and the first 400 members receive a free canvas tote bag.

​KDA and the Chamber of Commerce are located at 440 Central Way, in the Arete Building.
