Skyway neighborhood celebrates launch of community-crafted plan for its future

After months of planning with over 200 residents and 3,000 volunteers hours, Skyway, a neighborhood in unincorporated King County, WA, has developed an incredible community-crafted plan for a positive, equitable future. Pomegranate Center led the community through a six-month process of creating Skyway Solutions: a community agenda for revitalization.


Skyway Solutions CelebrationCommunity members threw themselves a party on June 6, 2009 to launch the plan and celebrate their work thus far. The all-day event focused on “putting their vision into action” - work parties planted community gardens, made community art and cleaned-up Skyway Park. The day ended with a community-wide party with food and music to celebrate the ongoing work of making Skyway a vibrant community. Check out some pictures of the celebration…

The Pomegranate Center team has loved working with Skyway and we can’t wait to see what comes next for this amazing community. Go, Skyway, go!
