Temporary Closure

After 12 years of use and tree growth, the playground at Pier 1 will be temporarily closed while renovations and upgrades are made. Tree growth has exceeded current beds and root growth has pushed the ground safety surface upwards, creating limited ADA and stroller access as well as trip and safety hazards. After consultation with arborists, some trees will be removed from the play area and new trees will be planted in enlargened plant beds. Tree canopy cover and shade in the area will not be significantly affected.

The new play equipment, made with recycled plastic, will have sensory elements suitable for play for children ages 2-5 years of age.

The playground will be closed from late April – early June.
