Jane Clark park

The north end playfield project started approximately two decades ago. The late Benjamin L. Harvey's estate provided the initial financial support. Mr. Harvey's mother was named after the field. The park district bought the land at North 39th and Orchard from Pierce county at a tax sale in 1935. During the depression, WPA personnel worked on the site, but the current operations uncovered the 8.5-acre field from beneath a thicket of alders that had grown up during the war years (from "Long-Planned North End Playfield is Growing" in the May 28, 1948 Tacoma Labor Advocate).

Hamilton Park (Ruston Way)

Hamilton Park was named after City Attorney Robert Hamilton in 1984. Before retiring as City Attorney, Robert Hamilton worked for 29 years, and then-Councilmember Jack Hyde recommended naming the lot after him in appreciation of his "long and committed and honorable service." It's one of the Ruston Way parts managed by Metro Parks Tacoma and owned by the City of Tacoma.
