The site is passive, with landscaping and benches, primarily because of a highly active residents group. In 2007, neighbors of the park started a petition to have lighting upgrades to the facility based on its location in a high traffic area and an important city green space. The residents also seek landscaping improvements designed to promote more visibility into and through the park which are consistent with CPTED standards.

 

    The installation of these lights is anticipated in the fall of 2009 or the spring of 2010.  During the installation of the lights, the park will also undergo some modest cosmetic improvements, including the development of a shade garden in the section of the park near Wood Creek.  Additionally, some overgrown shrubbery will be removed and relocated to other facilities.
