You may have noticed the construction that's taking place right now at the entrance to Rockwood Park. The parking lot being built is part of the 3 million dollar second phase of the park's redevelopment. Landscape architect Larry Stewart tells CHSJ News there were a couple of themes he wanted to incorporate including better accessibility for both the handicapped and those people riding bicycles, a more natural look and better water quality in Lily Lake.
Two matching boulders will be installed at the entrance to the park that will replace the existing sign. The Public Gardens on Seely Street will be connected to Rockwood Park by a trail. Stewart says people will visibly notice a big change once phase two is complete.
