Section 10 <br /> Silver Lake <br /> Three public parks are located on Silver Lake: Thornton A. Sullivan Park on the west side of the <br /> lake, Hauge Homestead Park at the southeast corner of the lake, and Green Lantern Park at <br /> the northeast side of the lake. <br /> The City and the Washington State Department of Transportation widened SR 527, with <br /> additional pedestrian paths, bike lanes, docks, and shoreline enhancements. Five feet wide <br /> bike paths on both sides of SR 527 on the street side of the curb were constructed. A new <br /> pedestrian signalized crossing is provided mid-block at the north side of the lake. <br /> Pedestrian activated signals are provided at 116th and Lake Heights Drive. <br /> The City has acquired much of the property between SR 527 and Silver Lake. The narrow strip <br /> of land between SR 527 and Silver Lake has been highly impacted by uncontrolled pedestrian <br /> access and roadside parking, as well as wind and wave erosion. The City has worked to <br /> stabilize the shoreline and prevent further erosion by concentrating public access in hardened <br /> pedestrian corridors, anchoring logs and/or downed trees at the shoreline edge parallel to the <br /> shoreline, and planting the beach, wetlands, and remaining areas between the trail and the lake <br /> with native plantings. The lakeside pedestrian path runs along the edge of curb, except from <br /> approximately Emory's restaurant to Hauge Homestead Park, where the sidewalk veers away <br /> from the roadway toward the lake. <br /> Silver Lake Road, at the north end of the lake, will also be improved as part of the SR 527 <br /> project. A 6 foot wide pedestrian path will be provided on the south side of the road. The road <br /> will be a bike route (no separate lane). The cul-de-sac will be taken out and a one-way exit to <br /> 14th Ave. SE through Thornton A. Sullivan Park will be provided. Docks were constructed near <br /> the 116' Street intersection and one on the north side of the lake. Improved access points to <br /> the lake, native landsca.in•, .icnic tables, and waste cans are also provided. <br /> • <br /> 4110 <br /> * <br /> • Wit'-_ <br /> j K NKf ..xx :aj LW{{�.�" 5•; p �• w S•P . <br /> Silver Lake Disc Golf <br /> Shoreline Public Access Plan Update 2019 57 <br />
