PROJECT DESCRIPTION

The goal of this project is to develop a community park at the northeast corner of E. John Street and Summit Avenue E.

Parks purchased the .21 acre property in 2007. The current use, that of a parking lot, will continue until shortly before construction starts in Spring 2009.

Parks held a public Open House at the Cal Anderson Shelter House in November 2007. Mithun was hired as the Landscape Architect in charge of design and construction. Mithun later presented three design concepts at a community meeting on April 3, 2008. Those concepts, as well as the meeting minutes, are posted on this web site.

Mithun will be presenting a revised concept to the Design Commission on May 15. This concept has been developed in response to comments offered at the April 3rd community meeting.

A third community meeting is scheduled for early June. A concept, revised in response to comments from the Design Commission, will be presented at that meeting. This is the forum for public comments. Your participation is welcomed.

See the Pro Parks acquisition webpage for more information.
