Kinsmen Park Master Plan Updates

The Kinsmen Park and Area Master Plan will transform the park into a memorable and enjoyable place for all ages and abilities year-round, while continuing to support local communities and the growing downtown population. The Master Plan sets the framework to guide detailed design of the park and area over the next 25 years. It was approved by City Council in 2011 and phase one construction completed Summer 2015.

Kinsmen Play Village Updates

Kinsmen Play Village featured a paddling pool and playground in various forms since 1930.  In 2016, work began on the Play Village as part of phase two of the Master Plan.

The former paddling pool, concrete and building structures have been removed and popular pelican slide from the paddling pool has been donated to the Children’s Discovery Museum.  The accessible play structure, tot lot play structure, saucer swings and balance beam remain in place and the rubber surface was upgraded in Summer 2017. Future revitalization includes new landscaping and plantings. Kinsmen Play Village may be closed at times throughout the construction process, so watch for updates.
