Downtown Park
Welcome To Downtown Park
Every great city has a signature place that serves as a destination, an icon for the city, and a catalyst for economic growth. The Downtown Park is a place for community members to gather and celebrate. It hosts vibrant special events, cultural arts programs, and recreational activities. The enhanced pedestrian environment in and around the park stimulates economic activity in the neighborhood.
