Taft Park

The new Taft Park playground is now open! We hope you enjoy the new playground and accessibility improvements. Learn more about the project below.

Taft Park, 2951 Simms Dr., was funded for improvements with construction beginning in the fall of 2021.

Last renovated in 1985, this beloved neighborhood park has provided much enjoyment to local families and visitors over the years. With input from the community, the City upgraded playground amenities and provided improved accessibility. The goal was to develop a plan to ensure that Taft Park remains a special gathering place in Ward 1.

The Taft Park playground neighborhood meeting originally scheduled for September 29 has been rescheduled beginning at 5 p.m. on Wednesday, October 13 at the park. We hope to see you there.

Construction is set to being on Monday, July 18!
