Here at University District, we believe in the importance of play for all ages and abilities and the excitement and magic that comes along with it. Our Northwest Commons Park is ready to welcome and inspire a new concept of outdoor play. It’s also a Playcore National Demonstration Site for inclusive play and is award wining for universal design.
