Grass Creek Park Project
Grass Creek Park Project
About the Project
Grass Creek Park is a 38.4 hectare community park located at 2991 Highway 2 in Kingston's east end. Improvements associated with the 2013 Grass Creek Park Master Plan are currently forecast to occur beyond the 15 year capital planning horizon; however, it was recognized in the Waterfront Master Plan that if opportunities for partnerships were identified for advancement of projects that these would be presented to Council for consideration.
It was identified that the highest priority element would be improvements to the existing washroom and change room facility. In January 2018, Council approved the washroom and change room facility improvements.
Funding for the project is been provided in part by the Pittsburgh Community Benefit Fund.
