Point Defiance Park Master Plan Update & Development Regulation Agreement Tacoma, WA

A Community Vision

Point Defiance Park is one of Tacoma’s most cherished and visited natural spaces. We were tasked with creating a master plan update that would steward and enhance the park over 20 years. Our first step was to get a sense of the community’s vision for the park, so we used social media, public meetings and workshops, and environmental and historical research to develop a plan for the park’s space and programming needs.

We next worked with Metro Parks and the City of Tacoma to create a Development Regulation Agreement (DRA), streamlining park development and saving the client – and essentially the voters – money. When the DRA was approved at City Council, many community members stepped forward to declare their satisfaction with the effectiveness of the public process.
