The City of Seattle's Port of Seattle manages this linear park. There's a large sign in the heart of the park that mentions the park as being rededicated to commemorate the Port's 100th anniversary from 1911 to 2011. The sign also reads that the park was originally dedicated on July 17, 1976 in memory of Howard M. Burke, General Manager of the Port of Seattle from 1953-1964.
