Spinney Homestead Park

The City of Kirkland purchased the park property from the State of Washington Highway Commission in 1977. The property had been used as a borrow pit for the construction of Interstate 405. In the late 1800s, the property was owned by Reuben Spinney, for whom the park was named.

Spinney Homestead Park has one field. It is a multi-purpose grass field that can accommodate baseball, softball, soccer, lacrosse, and many other sports. A permit may be required for use, please see our Rent an Athletic Field webpage for more information.

Donating funds to a park is a wonderful way to show appreciation for Kirkland, to honor someone special, or to commemorate a milestone. Park benches and tables are the most popular items to donate, however other donations are possible as well, like those for trees or landscape, for general park maintenance, towards public art or other site amenities (i.e. water fountains), and even towards the tools and equipment needed to keep Kirkland’s parks beautiful.
