Mayor Jenny A. Durkan will celebrate the public unveiling of E. Barbara Bailey Way, named in honor of the late LGBTQ+ activist civil rights champion, Barbara Bailey, who passed away in September 2018. 

Mayor Durkan is joined by Michele Hasson from the AIDS Memorial Pathway project, Pride Foundation CEO Katie Carter, and Thatcher Bailey, President and CEO of the Parks Foundation, activist, and brother of Barbara Bailey to deliver a brief speaking program in advance of the unveiling.

The new E. Barbara Bailey Way will be located at the Festival Street portion of East Denny Way between Broadway East and 10th Avenue East, near the site of Bailey's former small business, Bailey/Coy Books. The street connects the new AIDS Memorial Pathway plaza to Cal Anderson Park and the Capitol Hill Link Light Rail station, creating a gathering place for all Capitol Hill Residents.
