The site features a building called the Good Shepherd Center, which is listed on the National Register of Historic Places as the Home of the Good Shepherd [3] and is a city of Seattle designated landmark.

Community involvement with the site occurs through the Good Shepherd Center Advisory Board.

[13] The playground at the site was revamped in 1998 and then upgraded in 2007, both times with matching grants through the city.

The sculptures at the back of the playground are based on children's book characters and the two sculptures at the entry are designed to recall past use of the Home of the Good Shepherd, with a nun in front of the GSC and a school girl picking an apple.

There is also a niche sculpture of Jesus as the Good Shepherd over the front entrance to the Center.
