Longfellow Creek Greenspace
Monday, May 12, 2008
Access points along 26th Avenue Southwest, between Southwest Juneau and Yancy streets and Southwest Graham Street and Delridge Way.
Longfellow Creek originates near Roxhill Park and flows for three miles through the Delridge Valley, spilling into the Duwamish River near the West Seattle Bridge. The creek is one of the few natural waterways left within the city limits remaining mostly exposed. Through the dedication of neighborhood volunteers and the Longfellow Creek Watershed Action Project, the creek has improved habitat for riparian creatures. To help with creek restoration efforts, check out the website,
