Jack Long Park Redevelopment Update

While we have had some setbacks with the timing of its completion, Jack Long Park is almost ready for visitors!

Currently, the park is anticipated to be completed by the end of summer this year. We’ve had a few challenges, but are moving ahead with our plans and hope to have the community into their new park by fall.

Late summer / early Fall 2021 will be the opportune time for The City to share this vibrant new space with the community, when they will be able to:

• Enjoy the custom amenities designed for this park, including the play structure, picnic areas and open grass spaces.

• Book the event area for festivals and community events.

• Rent the greenspace for informal events.

• Enjoy the picnic areas, seating options and the bike racks (designed with input from citizens).
