Work Update Late April

Construction at Ken Kelly Park is moving ahead at a remarkable pace, and the City is thrilled to bring a beautiful new green space to the neighborhood this summer! Recent work has included the successful installation of key utilities, including both water and electrical systems. The majority of the hardscape elements have also been completed, providing a solid framework for the rest of the park’s features. Additionally, work on the signature stone wall is well underway and continuing to take shape.

Still to come are several important finishing touches. These include the installation of fencing, railings, and planter rail systems, as well as the park’s exciting new water features. Landscaping will begin soon, with plantings, irrigation systems, and other site features rounding out the final phase of construction.

As part of the landscape design process, City staff—along with landscape architects from Crowley Cottrell—recently visited a local nursery to hand-select and tag the trees that will be planted on-site. These carefully chosen trees will add beauty, shade, and ecological value to the park for years to come.

We look forward to welcoming the community to enjoy all that Ken Kelly Park will offer very soon!
