Jimi Hendrix Park

The CD, Madrona & Madison Park


Dedicated to Hendrix in 2006, the park abuts the Northwest African American Museum just north of the Beacon Hill neighborhood. Phase 2 of the park's construction was completed in 2017, adding an artistic shelter meant to represent the fluidity of Hendrix's music. More public art is scheduled to be installed in the coming years.
