Project Purpose

Building on master plans recently completed for every park in the district, Great Parks also developed a master plan for this property. The plan aligns neighborhood and community interests with the facility and programmatic goals of Great Parks to design a new park that is a true community asset.

Great Parks included park neighbors, the Westwood community and Hamilton County residents and stakeholders in the planning process through surveys, interviews, in-person events and interactive workshops. An Advisory Group made up of leaders and representatives from local community organizations, such as WestCURC, Westwood Works and the Westwood Historical Society, also provided guidance during the process.

In October 2023, Great Parks approved a concept master plan based on ideas presented by the community. This plan establishes a long-range vision for the park, and its implementation will be phased out over many years. Great Parks is currently working on a timeline and funding strategy for implementation and is excited to continue working with its Westwood neighbors to build out this new community asset.
