9/28/21 - Public Input Sought on Marquette Park Master Plan Design

Wyoming's Marquette Park is getting ready for renovations and the public is invited to share their ideas.

Wyoming, Michigan - There are new possibilities on the horizon for the City of Wyoming's Marquette Park, 1251 Marquette St SW.

The public will have many ways to share their design ideas, from in-person meetings to electronic surveys.   The public is invited to attend open house design forums to be held at 6:30 p.m. on September 28 at the Godfrey Lee Early Childhood Center, 961 Joosten St. and again on September 29, at the Wyoming Senior Center, 2380 Dehoop Ave.

The public is also invited to share their ideas and priorities by completing an electronic survey at: www.surveymonkey.com/r/wyomingmarquettepark.

Marquette Park is located in the northern region of the city, surrounded by an ethnically diverse, dense residential neighborhood and adjacent to industrial properties.  Plaster Creek flows through the northeast corner of the park and generally serves the city residents attending the Godfrey Lee Public School district.  While serving as a neighborhood park, its competitive soccer facilities support the overall city's recreation program.  It currently houses the city's only dog park, the Grand Rapids Rifle and Pistol Club, and the City of Wyoming's community garden facility, a partnership program with UCOM.
