Garden District Deserves An Amazing Park

Garden District Deserves An Amazing Park

Garden District Deserves An Amazing Park

My name is Matt Carroll, and I am a resident of our beloved Garden District living here with my wife, Lizz and two daughters, June & Rowan. There is a unique, underutilized park on the corner of Camp St. and Pleasant St. that could be so much more for our community. I have been in contact with NORD, and they are in full support of our neighborhood taking over the park to turn it into a special space for us all. I want to gauge interest from the community on putting a playscape and dog park in this space — funded by the community. We would love to hear from you! Completing the form here will help us take the next step towards this transformation.

Here’s the space as it exists today — and the kind of community gathering place it could become with neighborhood support.
