The construction of this park added a significant recreational facility to the city. The scope included both hard infrastructure like electrical and grading, and soft elements like landscaping and trails. The project was a one-off new construction effort rather than a renovation or expansion of an existing structure. The low cost per square foot reflects the nature of outdoor park development, which involves more land preparation and landscaping than structural building. The completion of this project in December 2020 provided the community with a new public space for recreation and gathering.
