Wright Park Master Plan
Wright Park today
The City of Lakewood and Stream Landscape Architecture have teamed up to develop a master plan to re-imagine Wright Park! Located at 500 Wright St., this 10-acre neighborhood park is located West of Union Boulevard and South of Sixth Avenue in Ward 1. This community space plays an important role in the neighborhood as it serves more than 2,000 residences within 1/4-mile of the park that have limited outdoor space or yards. The park currently provides ample open space, soft-surface trails and a small playground.
With input from the community and stakeholders, the city will develop a master site plan for the future of this special park to provide amenities desired by the neighborhood.
We want to hear from you! Use the tools below to share your thoughts with the project team. Subscribe to this page for meeting dates and events, to participate in the park planning process and receive future updates.

Matt Hodge asked 2 months agoThank you for your patience, we are anxious to get this project started! We are hoping construction can commence this fall. The permitting review took much longer than expected, and grant funds were awarded for the project, causing some delay with regards to Buy America requirements. We have finalized all of these changes and hope to have dates to share soon. To follow updates on the project, see the Project Timeline on the right hand side of the page.

RB asked 5 months agoThank you, we have found the error and updated to 2024. We are hoping construction can commence later this summer or early fall. The permitting review took some time, and grant funds were awarded for the project, causing some delay. We are as anxious as the neighborhood to get started!

Share I live in Telluride West in a townhouse next to the path going down to Wright park. I see multiple people using this path to allow their dogs to relieve themselves, however they don't go all the way down to the park and instead use front lawn outside my door. Is it possible to consider a railing or re- align the path directing people away from the properties and add Pet Waste bag stations? I moved in thinking the park would be great for my pets, but I don't use this park due to the amount of large off leash dog use and pet waste everywhere. on Facebook Share I live in Telluride West in a townhouse next to the path going down to Wright park.

Maverick_Juni asked 8 months agoHi there,
This project will include a small neighborhood dog park to give those pups room to run in an enclosed space. Great suggestion!
