Come support Stevens Park on Wednesday

Jan 31, 2011 by jeffpooley

Stevens Park is, by many accounts, the most used park per square foot of any in the whole city. And yet its condition is deplorable–including plywood over broken equipment and graffiti.

There’s good news! Lorne Possinger from the state’s DCNR is visiting Stevens on THIS Wednesday (March 30) to tour the park in advance of our application for a grant to overhaul the park:

THIS Wednesday, March 30

10am

Stevens Park (corner of 6th and Tilghman)

We’ve applied before, through the city’s Department of Parks and Recreation. Our plan is based on a community-input study from 2008, produced by a Muhlenberg College student. The design is from one of the city’s top firms, Roberson Butz.

This is our year! Come out and support Old Fairgrounds and Stevens Park!
