Work begins to reopen a Marysville park for the first time in 25 years

EVERETT — Work is underway in north Marysville to open a park previously closed to the public for over 25 years.

Construction began Monday to reestablish public access to Mother Nature’s Window, a 34-acre park located off 55th Avenue Northeast, south of 110th Street in Marysville, according to a press release.

City contractors scheduled work to complete in December 2025, the release said. A U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development grant of $750,000 funded half the $1.47 million construction budget. The city will provide the remainder.

Mother Nature’s Window’s private owner closed the park to the public in the mid-1990s, according to spokesperson Connie Mennie. In 1999, Snohomish County acquired the park from the owner’s estate, and in 2009, it was annexed into Marysville as part of a larger annexation.
