Kerry Park (Franklin Place)

Nestled on a hilltop in the Queen Anne Hill neighborhood, Kerry Park (Franklin Place) offers sweeping views of downtown Seattle, the iconic Space Needle, and the distant Mount Rainier. This scenic spot is a favorite among photographers, who capture the city skyline, the leafy streets below, and the expanse of Puget Sound, where ferries can be seen heading to the San Juan Islands. Visitors today can enjoy a tranquil setting with benches and a small play area, making it an ideal place to relax and take in the panoramic vistas.
