City seeks park land claim in West Seattle parcel
Residents push the city to assert ownership of a 20 to 40 acre West Seattle land tract once platted for a park by Wat Beattie Land and Improvement Company. The property, valued at 200000 to 260000 dollars, was promised to become a park to lure buyers. The 1991 plat shows land reserved for park purposes and the public says the company still claims ownership despite park promises and a Supreme Court decision granting the city park board authority to take and improve reserved land. The board will be asked to secure title to the site following the ruling.
