Quail Street Park Improvements Are Coming Soon
The City of Lakewood acquired the 9-acre Quail Street Park, located at 1960 Quail St., in 2024 from Denver Water. This new neighborhood park provides much needed park space in Ward 1. A portion of the park was originally leased to the city from Denver Water and included a new playground and safety surface that was designed by the neighborhood and constructed in 2022.

Thanks to the recent acquisition, the City is preparing for the next phase of vital improvements to the park. Stormwater improvements on the east side of park include a detention basin to provide water quality and mitigate flooding downstream of the park. The basin will contain a channel that seamlessly integrates with the park, remains dry during normal conditions, and will only flow during storm events. The water basin will provide relief from flooding in the park and mitigate identified flooding issues along West 20th Avenue and in the adjacent neighborhood.
This phase of park development will also include park enhancements including a paved loop trail, better connectivity throughout the park and existing playground, new trees and enhanced landscaping. The park will retain a large open lawn area for passive uses or pick-up play. Future phases of park development could include new amenities and will occur following a community engagement process and as funding allows. View the site plan for more details.
