The planned playground is part of a bigger project in the North Side park

It may be too cold to enjoy Garvin Park right now, but the city is looking ahead to warmer days and a new playground. WNIN’s John Gibson has the story:

Evansville’s Department of Parks and Recreation has announced plans for a new playground with safety surfacing.

The city says it’s the first step in creating an Activity Zone in Garvin Park.

The project will be funded as part of the 24-million dollar bond approved by the Parks Board last year.

It’s also part of the Garvin Park Master Plan, which also calls for basketball courts, a new restroom building and/or a new shelter.

Work is expected to begin on the playground project later this year.
