Published: 14 February 2020 14 February 2020

45 Day Public Comment Period open through April 5.

kennypark draftCalled the Southwest Parks Plan for short, the draft plan contains updated park designs that will guide development of all Southwest Minneapolis neighborhood park properties over the next 20+ years.

The design for Kenny Park was approached not only as an individual neighborhood site, but also as one part of a four-park collection in the far southwest portion of the service area which has a strong and interconnected focus on athletics, primarily field and diamond sports. Kenny will be designated as a “field sports focused park” with the removal of diamonds and the installation of a premier artificial turf field, striped for field sports only. This will balance nearby Armatage Park which is designated a “diamond sports focused park”.
