Caraleigh Park Improvements Project

Renovations Funded by Accessibility for Parks Grant

Thanks for participating in our Initial Input survey!
You can now review the results.

Caraleigh Park is an existing 0.57-acre neighborhood park, located at 110 Maywood Avenue, approximately 1 mile south of Downtown Raleigh. In March 2023, the City of Raleigh was selected as a recipient of an Accessibility for Parks Grant, which will be used for universal design-focused renovations to Caraleigh Park, with a special emphasis on sensory play. 

Proposed improvements include a new, ADA-accessible ramp to access the park, renovations to the basketball court, a new playground with safety surfacing and sensory-focused play, as well as general improvements to the open space, landscaping, and shade. Additionally, the project will include upgrades to the existing bus stop, potentially including a pad and furnishings.
