10th Ave. and Grant St., Eugene

This small urban park is tucked into the Far West neighborhood, between 9th Place and 10th Avenue along Grant Street. It was constructed in 1982 with Community Development Block Grant Funds.

Public engagement for the playground renovation took place in 2023 and the project plans were put out to public bid in summer 2024.

The contract for the park renovation has been awarded and the contractor will begin construction on September 13th. Construction may continue through the fall and winter, weather permitting.

The goal is to complete the renovation and have the park open and ready for play by summer 2025.

Funding for this project comes from the 2018 Parks and Recreation Bond.

    Thank you to everyone who has helped shape the planning process for the park renovation. We are very excited to post some construction photos on the website.

    The gathering space feels very welcoming and integrated with the playground and new play equipment is being installed this week. The lowering of the big hill makes the entire park feel bigger and safer.

    Construction fencing remains in place and the park remains closed to the public but we look forward to celebrating the park’s re-opening with you this summer. link to photos
