Upcoming Engagement
Join us at Arts Access (444 S. Blount Street, Suite 115B) on Friday, Aug. 1, from 6 to 8 p.m. for a community engagement event to preview the artist’s concept designs for Caraleigh Park!
This is your chance to explore the proposed artwork and share your thoughts directly with the project team. Your feedback will help shape the final public art design for the park.
Project Overview
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 to receive 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.
