After walking by a usually empty parking lot during the pandemic, community members living around Peck Fields nominated the lot to be Depaved. Metro Parks Tacoma, who owns the parking lot, has agreed to taking out parts of the parking lot to replace it with a new rain garden, trees, and pollinator plants. By replacing pavement with rain gardens and green spaces, we can reduce the amount of polluted stormwater runoff that goes into our gutters and out to the Salish Sea. 

Join PCD, Metro Parks, the Central Neighborhood Council, and others to Depave Peck and make way for new green spaces in the neighborhood. Free pizza will be provided for volunteers!
