Construction Starting Soon!

August 2025 through Late 2025


** Playground is expected to close after Sunday, August 10 **


We’re giving the playground a fresh new look this year! This playground renewal project includes replacing all play equipment and playground surfacing by swapping out the sand and old tiles for fall attenuation playground surfacing material that is also fully accessible. We’ll also make minor grading and drainage improvements and update the surrounding asphalt to ensure the playground is accessible for everyone.

For the duration of construction, the playground will be closed. Expect construction noise, intermittent street/sidewalk closures, and pedestrian detours.

Alternate parks nearby include:

Holly Park – Holly Park Circle and Highland Ave

St. Mary’s Playground – 145 Justin Dr.
