Wyss Associates, Inc. worked with the Rapid City Parks and Recreation Department to Master Plan a 27 Acre park in North Rapid City in 2007. In 2008-09 Phase I of the Master Plan was designed and is currently under construction. A community built, destination playground is being realized through coordination with Leathers and Associates and an active citizens committee.
Other features of the park are:
- Three open grass fields
- Natural areas
- Extensive natural surface walking paths
- Custom walls and tables
- Pedestrian bridge
- Sledding hill
- Restroom building
- Shelter and parking lots designed to clean and slow stormwater
Future phases will include an overlook, a skate park and a more fully developed dog park in the South Eastern corner of the site. The project was completed in the Summer of 2009.
