April 10, 2025: Due to a sewage overflow on Mercer Island, Enatai Beach Park swim area is closed until 3:30 p.m. on April 16, 2025. Chesterfield Beach Park, SE 40th Street Boat Launch, and Burrows Landing are also closed to swimming. Users of non-motorized watercraft should use caution and avoid the affected area.
Albert S. Burrows (1839-1896) was one of the first settlers in the Bellevue area, arriving in the area in 1882. In 1894 he was called to public office, becoming a member of the state legislature, and served for one term. He was a man of prominence in his district, and Burrows Landing, now a community dock, was named in his honor. This 0.25 acre park features a dock which can be used as a non-motorized watercraft launch site.
