Historical Note

Mayor Wes Uhlman convened the Sick's Stadium Task Force in March 1977. The group was asked to define criteria for a variety of potential uses for the stadium site, as the new Kingdome had replaced the facility as the city's baseball venue. The task force included representatives from the Building Department, Parks Department, Department of Community Development, and Mayor's Office, as well as citizen members representing neighborhood groups and local businesses. Their report was completed and submitted to the mayor in June 1977.
