The Building
Near the entrance to the park, the Seward Audubon Center welcomes your to a special place within the city.
The Seward Park Audubon Center welcomes neighbors, both near and far. We offer activities that connect people to inspiring programs that illuminate the natural world and inspire them to take conservation actions. As part of the National Audubon Society’s network of Centers and State Programs, Seward Park Audubon Center’s mission is to inspire diverse audiences to conserve natural ecosystems and build healthy communities for people, birds and wildlife. Each year the Center delivers guided walks, lectures, and other programs to Seattle area residents and invites over 18,000 visitors through its doors.
Seward Park is one Seattle’s premier outdoors areas. The park encompasses all of Bailey Peninsula, bordered by Lake Washington and Andrews Bay. The park’s 277 acres included one of the oldest stands of trees in Seattle and features more than two miles of shoreline. The park’s various ecosystems create habitat for a great variety of flora and fauna, and an unique location for viewing birds.
The building is a fully restored structure built in 1927 as “Ye Seward Park Inn”. For sixteen years the building served as the business and residence for inn operators Frank and Catherine Redfield and family. After many years of use by Seattle Parks & Recreation, Audubon mounted a campaign the restore the facility, including modern upgrades, to become an environmental education center. Along the way facets of the building received landmark status, and in 2008 opened it’s door to the public as the Seward Park Audubon Center.
