Boulevard Woods: The Park and the Website

This park is the result of a huge neighborhood effort.

The park is still emerging, but volunteer Krysia Haag has finished building a logo and website for the friends and supporters of Boulevard Woods, a soon-to-be passive park. The park is at the intersection of Barber and Boulevard.

Here's the url for the website: http://boulevardwoods.org/

Boulevard Neighborhood Association President Dan Lorentz says in an email:

"We’ve come a long way in our efforts to create Boulevard Woods. After gathering neighborhood input, designing a concept plan, gaining initial ACC approval, winning a $75,000 grant, and starting the official review process, we decided it was time for a new website to help take us across the finish line.

"We’ll be using our new website to keep people informed of our progress, to help us raise money and recruit volunteers and, when the times comes again, to rally supporters to help push for final action from the Mayor and Commission.
 
"But while all those functions are important, we’ll also be using the website to celebrate the community that has come together--the people and the organizations--to create Boulevard Woods. And we’ll be sharing lots of pretty pictures of the site--as it is now, and as we work to build the park."
