Viretta Park
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Viretta Park is a 1.8-acre park in the Denny-Blaine neighborhood of Seattle, Washington at the foot of E. John Street at 39th Avenue E., stretching down to Lake Washington Boulevard E. It was named by Charles L. Denny after his wife, Viretta Jackson Denny. It is located north of the former home of Starbucks chairman Howard Schultz and south of the former home of Kurt Cobain, where he died. Nirvana fans gather at the park on the anniversary of Cobain's death (April 5) to pay tribute to the late musician. The park's benches are covered with graffiti messages to the rock icon. The benches are stolen on a regular basis, due to the fact that he was last seen sitting on one.
