The Metropolitan Park Design Project aims to transform the park into a vibrant, sustainable, and accessible public space that meets the diverse needs of the community.

The project is managed by the city's Department of Parks and Recreation in collaboration with leading landscape architects and urban planners.

The project is expected to be completed in three phases over the next two years, with the first phase began in March 2024. 

The project will include new playgrounds, walking and biking trails, sports facilities, picnic areas, enhanced green spaces, and improved accessibility features.

Funding for the project comes from a combination of city budget allocations, state grants, and private donations.

While some areas of the park may be temporarily closed during construction, we are committed to minimizing disruptions and maintaining access to key areas whenever possible.

Community input is crucial to the success of the project. We encourage residents to participate in public meetings, surveys, and workshops that will be announced on our website and social media channels.

The project incorporates sustainable design principles, including the use of native plants, water-efficient landscaping, renewable energy sources, and eco-friendly materials.

The design includes improved lighting, clear sightlines, and enhanced security features to ensure the safety and comfort of all park visitors.
