City of Harrison
The City of Harrison, located in Clare County, Michigan, is undertaking a transformative enhancement of the Harrison City Park. This initiative is a collaboration between the City Engineering firm, local stakeholders, and community members, aimed at addressing the evolving recreational needs of Harrison’s residents.
The heart of this capital project is the comprehensive upgrade of the city’s park facilities. Key improvements include the resurfacing and expansion of existing tennis and pickleball courts, which is responding to a significant community demand. The addition of new pickleball courts aims to accommodate the sport's growing popularity among residents.
Furthermore, the city is committed to inclusivity and accessibility; hence, the project incorporates the construction of an ADA-compliant playscape. This new feature is designed to cater to children of varying abilities, promoting intergenerational play and enhancing community connections.
The project is poised to serve a wide array of residents, from youth and families to adults and seniors, impacting physical and mental well-being positively. It aims to provide improved recreational infrastructure, inclusive play opportunities, and foster a more interconnected community. The anticipated enhancements will not only cater to the current demand for more accessible and varied recreational options but also contribute to the economic and social vitality of Harrison.
With the enhanced facilities, the city expects to see an increase in physical activity levels amongst residents, improved community engagement, and a stronger sense of belonging. The project aligns with the City of Harrison's vision of creating a vibrant, inclusive community space that prioritizes the health and happiness of its inhabitants.
