Centennial Viewpoint Park - Auburn
At just 0.7 acres, Centennial Viewpoint Park mainly serves as a viewpoint overlooking Auburn. The view south extends well past all the way to Mount Rainier. For many years, the location was more of a gravel pull-out until it was developed into a park in 1991. It was built by the Auburn Rotary Club during Auburn's Centennial year celebration. You can find picnic tables, public art and views. (When I was a teenager, I was riding my bike past the viewpoint one day when it was full of law-enforcement. That night on the news, I learned that the Green River murder had dumped a body there...yikes!)
