Summary

Seattle Parks is considering a plan to add a children's play area at Denny Blaine Park, a place well-known for nude beachgoers and community gatherings. The proposal has sparked concerns and opposition from supporters of the park's naturist and queer communities, who view the plan as a form of gentrification. The project would be funded by a private donation and is still open for community feedback.
