Know Before You Go
There are currently 2 construction projects taking place in this park that are affecting access to its amenities.
The playground is open. This project will reconstruct the existing playground to include a fully accessible toddler/preschool unit, challenging climbers for older children, and a water spray feature as the centerpiece of the playground. A new basketball court complex consisting of both full and half courts will be installed alongside bench seating and bleachers. Enhancements will include a redesigned central spray plaza, an improved variety of seating options, and ornamental planting beds showcasing trees, shrubs, and flowers. ADA accessibility will be provided to the lower level of the recreational building through a ramp system . Please pardon our appearance.
Anticipated Completion: Fall 2011
The recreation center building is closed. This project will install a new HVAC system and a roof and drainage system. In addition, the granite stone façade will be fully rehabilitated and all the existing windows will be replaced with replica ones. The restroom facilities on the first floor will be completely upgraded so that patrons will have exterior access from the field level of the structure. The main entrance steps at field level will be modified to include a new ramp structure for ADA accessibility. Please pardon our appearance.
Anticipated Completion: Summer 2012
