Welcome to Heritage Park
Heritage Park is a 24-acre state-owned property adjacent to Capitol Lake and downtown Olympia. The park is the northern extension of the Capitol Campus and is managed by the state Department of General Administration.
A brief history
Construction of Heritage Park realizes the 1911 Capitol Campus master plan created by architects Walter Wilder and Harry White, designers of the Legislative Building. They envisioned a park that physically and visually connects the state’s capitol buildings and grounds to downtown Olympia, Puget Sound and the Olympic Mountains. General Administration, working with the non-profit Heritage Park Development Association, began park development in 1989.
