#465 - Seattle Dad Says Local Park is ‘Completely Encased with Encampments’

After hearing about the homeless encampments that have taken over fields in Ballard and are preventing local Little League teams from being able to play, others have spoken up about similar problems in different neighborhoods of Seattle.

A listener named Erick contacted KIRO Radio’s Dori Monson Show and shared photos from Miller Playfield, near Seattle’s Capitol Hill neighborhood.

Dori had previously said that he’d like to think that when his kids were young, the dads (or moms) would have removed the tents from the field and got back to the game. But he realized maybe he was just “talking tough” since he doesn’t know the situation as it is today. Erick is also a dad, and says his family used to use the space at Miller Playfields nearly every day.

“About three years ago, and this is long before COVID by the way, there was an occasional tent there, and maybe an occasional disruptive homeless person, but it wasn’t really a problem,” Erick said. “And it’s gone straight downhill ever since, to the point where you literally can’t run around the perimeter of the field.”
