Feriton Spur Park

Feriton Spur Park

The city developed Feriton Spur Park (47.6702°N 122.1981°W / 47.6702; -122.1981) approximately halfway between ends of the trail, in public–private partnership with Google, where one of the company's Kirkland campuses surrounds the park.[6][7]

Public art

Under a city construction budget set-aside for public art in Kirkland, art is installed on the corridor. The first such work was The Spikes, created in 2017 by Lake Washington Institute of Technology welding student Merrily Dicks,[8][9] and consisting of three 6–8 ft (1.8–2.4 m) columns of recycled railroad spikes, rising from a 4 ft × 4 ft (1.2 m × 1.2 m) metal base.[10]
