Fun Facts

Volunteer Park was designed by the Olmsted Brothers, the same firm that designed New York's Central Park.

The Conservatory was inspired by London's Crystal Palace and was built in 1912, showcasing a stunning Victorian glasshouse design.

The Conservatory is home to over 3,000 plant species from around the world, making it a botanical treasure trove.

A time capsule was buried in the park in 1975, set to be opened in 2075, containing artifacts from Seattle's past.

Volunteer Park features the 'Black Sun' sculpture by Isamu Noguchi, which inspired the song 'Black Hole Sun' by Soundgarden.
