PHASE 4 : ADDITIONAL DESIGN ELEMENTS

Phase 4 elements are focused on higher impact design
features. These improvements are about strengthening the 1
identity of the park and the previous phase features. The
proposed design elements work to elevate the spaces that
are currently underutilized. The lawn sequence and relocated 5
tennis court help create a concentration of activated areas. 2
By programming the lawn spaces it provides the opportunity
to increase the re-vegetation of nature-based aesthetic
along the west edge of the park entry.

DESIGN ELEMENTS:

1. BRIDGE PARK ENTRANCE 1
2. RELOCATED TENNIS COURT

3. DOUBLE SHELTER AREA + OPEN SPACE
4. UPPER PINE BLUFF ACTIVATION

1 BRIDGE PARK ENTRANCE
This final phase strategy includes the introduction of
a new pedestrian entry bridge connecting the entry 3
point off of the Centennial Trail through the trees 2
on the north side of park, and provide access for
the future residents of the housing currently being
developed on the former mill site to the north.

2 RELOCATED TENNIS COURT
The phase includes relocating the tennis courts to the
east to help screen the Parks building and open the
space near the basketball court enable the former
site to be re-vegetated, introducing more “nature-
based” feeling as you enter the park. 3

3 DOUBLE SHELTER AREA + OPEN SPACE
Further into the park the existing parking will be
replaced with a double shelter to service both open
lawns.

4 UPPER PINE BLUFF ACTIVATION
To help further activate the east edge there will be
programing on the northern Pine Bluff with passive
programing such as hammock groves. 4

5 RESTROOM
This phase includes the installation of a second
restroom to service the northern portion of the park.
