Phase I of the project includes the demolition of existing structures; renovation of the basketball courts (complete with fresh color coating and upgraded lighting); construction of a new restroom building and pavilion; installation of horseshoe courts; creation of pedestrian walkways and an ADA-compliant parking space; and stormwater management upgrades. We’ve also coordinated the design and installation of a splash pad with full ADA access, along with new landscaping, project signage, and other site improvements as shown on the plans.

This view highlights the upgrades to pedestrian walkways and new stair construction, improving accessibility across the east-to-west side of Ash Park. These enhancements will create easier, safer routes for visitors to navigate different parts of the park.
While construction is underway, the soccer field, playground, and existing pavilion will remain open for public use. Safety fencing will be installed in mid-June around the pool area, basketball courts, and horseshoe pits. These sections will remain closed until construction is complete to ensure public safety during active work phases.

This design improves flow and access, making it easier for families and athletes to move through the park.

Looking ahead, Phases III through V will focus on future enhancements, including upgrades to the soccer field and playground, as well as the construction of a new picnic-area pavilion. These phases will continue building on the foundation we’re laying today, ensuring Ash Park remains a welcoming, beautiful destination for years to come.
