The playground at Mark Twain Park, 1240 Larkspur Dr., has a brand new look thanks to improvements funded by the 2021 bond program. In addition to accessibility upgrades, there’s a new vibrant-colored playground structure with slides, swings, bridges and stepping blocks, and a new drinking fountain was installed nearby. The upgrades bring the park up to full compliance with state and federal accessibility standards.
Under the 2021 bond program, eight playgrounds are to receive renovations. So far, the Woodhaven Grove Park and Mark Twain playgrounds are complete and open to the public; construction at Terrace Park and Berkner Park is expected to begin this year (see below for information about a public meeting concerning the Berkner Park project).
