Groundbreaking for new neighborhood park
(COLORADO SPRINGS) — The City of Colorado Springs broke ground on a new neighborhood park on Friday, May 23.
The new park will be built near Voyager Parkway and North Gate Boulevard. The park will be built on 4.47 acres within the Grey Hawk subdivision.
The City said plans for the park were approved in March 2024 following its designation as a neighborhood park asset accepted into the city through the Park Land Dedication Ordinance (PLDO) in 2007.
The design of the park was influenced by those living in the community through three public meetings.
'They wanted something that was a combination of a challenge playground, but something that was going to be sustainable and durable, and probably manufactured type of equipment, so that is what we brought forward,' said Connie Schmeisser, Landscape architect for the City of Colorado Springs
