Tashkent Park

Set along Boylston Avenue East, the park commemorates Seattle’s partnership with Tashkent, Uzbekistan, forged during the Cold War as a sister-city pact. Its focal point is a collection of decorative tiles inscribed with “Peace” in both English and Cyrillic, giving an international diplomatic gesture a tangible, handmade scale.

While visitors note occasional maintenance issues over time, the space remains a quiet, pleasant pause within the dense Capitol Hill streetscape.
