“Building out a park of this size is a significant undertaking,” says project manager Andrew Gibbs. “So we’re starting with addressing the basic needs first.”

Gibbs adds “though this phase of construction will see completion of the sports fields in fall 2019, they will not likely be available for use until fall 2020.”

The city says the 11.5 acre area could eventually be home to a playground, walking trails, a dog park, multi-use playing fields, sport courts and a community garden.
