LAS VEGAS (KLAS) A 4-acre park along the Las Vegas Wash between Bonanza Road and Washington Avenue will include a lighted horse arena.<\/p>\n
Construction of the $5.8 million park is expected to take nine months.<\/p>\n
The City of Las Vegas announced a ground-breaking ceremony for the park at 4755 E. Harris Ave. on Wednesday, June 23, at 9 a.m. Las Vegas Mayor Carolyn G. Goodman and Ward 3 Councilwoman Olivia Diaz will be at the ceremony.<\/p>\n
Design plans include a playground, a lighted soccer field, a shade structure, restrooms and access to the Las Vegas Wash trailhead.<\/p>\n
Its the second new park in the area after East Las Vegas Family Park opened on Washington Avenue.<\/p>\n
The city is excited to bring this new park and its amenities to the neighborhood for all to enjoy, Goodman said. The equestrian theme will undoubtedly be a hit with residents of Ward 3 and it is a great addition to the citys list of equestrian-friendly parks.<\/p>\n
The land currently is a dirt lot along the wash with no trees, and will be fenced off by the contractor during construction. Work hours will be 7 a.m. to 6 p.m. Monday-Friday. Some work may happen on weekends when needed.<\/p>\n
The park was designed by Stanley Consultants after neighborhood meetings with residents. Wadley Construction Inc. is the contractor.<\/p>\n
