The event will start at the intersection of Bear Creek Parkway and 161st Avenue at the public art installation “Signals” by John Fleming.

This free, interactive event will lead participants through both the new and historic portions of Redmond’s Old Town and discuss community planning in the Historic Core.

Redmond city staff will provide updates on private development, the Cultural Corridor and capital projects including the Cleveland Streetscape, Downtown Park and the Redmond Central Connector, which won Feet First’s Walkable Washington Innovation Award.

For the second half of the walk, attendees can join an urban diary exercise and share their observations and ideas for enhancing the Historic Core’s character and vibrancy.
