Description: The 15.14-acre Harvey Manning Park Expansion project is part of 33-acres in the “Issaquah Alps”, an area comprised of Tiger, Squak, and Cougar Mountains, located above Lake Sammamish. The area plays a pivotal role in safeguarding the ecological integrity of the region. Nestled within the Issaquah city limits and the mountains to Sound Greenway National Heritage Area corridor, this century-old forest embodies a diverse array of riparian and wetland habitats. These ecosystems not only foster thriving wildlife corridors on Cougar Mountain but also serve as the guardians of pristine freshwater streams that nourish Tibbetts Creek, a vital salmon-bearing tributary to Lake Sammamish. This monumental conservation effort is a testament to the collaborative spirit of the City of Issaquah, the community, King County, and the Trust for Public Land.
