I assume by “reopened” you mean closed and reopened repeatedly? Yeah I moved a while ago and didn’t hear the comedy of errors continues. Looks like they’re thinking of dredging an area of lake union twice the size of the park?

The park's been open for 40 years.

It's entirely possible I'm wrong about this, and I missed an environmental closure, could you find a news article for it?

Yes, there's definitely a comedy of errors when it comes to remediating the site. I believe that there's a 2027 dredging plan.

As I understand it, the consensus is that the environmental danger largely lies in the buried waste poisoning the waterways, and the watertable, not picnic-goers. Am I wrong? Is the consensus wrong?
