Best New Seattle-Area Playgrounds of 2023

You’ll find the new neighborhood playground at Skyway Park in the community of Skyway, an unincorporated part of King County at the south end of Lake Washington, nestled between Seattle, Renton and Tukwila. Once you find it, your kids might not want to leave. While this playground does not feature as much — or as flashy — equipment as some other new playgrounds, its cargo climber, swings, spinners and ample wide-open space will keep kids active and entertained. Nearby doughnuts will entice them away once it’s time to go.
