Construction Notice: Construction Expected to Start Week of November 17

We're pleased to announce the project contract, which includes the entire renovation, was awarded to J.J. Phelan & Son Co.

We expect construction to start the week of November 17. We're working to maintain access to the community garden and keep a small section of the park open for as long as the construction allows.

Construction is expected to take 12 - 18 months to complete. We will communicate any changes to that schedule as the project moves forward.

Please stay tuned by signing up for future emails to receive more details on the construction schedule.
