North Commons Park improvements

Update: playground construction at North Commons Park

With the installation of play equipment complete, the next step before the playground opens to the public is for contractors to install safety surfacing.

This step requires warmer overnight temperatures, as well as no forecasted precipitation, so that rubber surfacing can cure (harden) properly over at least four days. Given recent and forecasted weather, it may be a few weeks before it's both warm and dry enough to install and cure the surfacing. 

In the meantime, MPRB asks everyone to keep out of the fenced areas until the work is complete and the fencing is removed. Nearby playgrounds are at Cottage Park, Glen Gale Park, Lovell Square Park and Willard Park. 

MPRB will send another update as soon as new information is confirmed. 

Thanks for your support while MPRB works to improve Minneapolis parks. 

Every neighborhood deserves a great park. This project includes funding from the 20-Year Neighborhood Park Plan, a historic 2016 agreement between MPRB and the City of Minneapolis. NPP20 helps address racial and economic equity across 160+ neighborhood parks and provides more than $11 million annually to maintain, repair and replace facilities.  1-minute video | 5 Years of Accomplishments: 2017–2021  Email updates |  minneapolisparks.org/NPP20
