Winding Walk Park
Almost every public park includes a children’s play area for toddler to school age children but few non-programmed activities for teenagers. Winding Walk Park includes a traditional children’s play area but also addresses the need for un-programmed teen activities by incorporating a 4,300 square foot unsupervised area for skating. The small skate park element includes an urban plaza with grind rails, benches and boxes.
