More meadow, less lawn!

Join us for a ribbon-cutting & tour at the redesigned Bryn Mawr Meadows Park

Thursday, October 24, 4pm to 5:30pm

From bird watchers to ball players, the redesigned Bryn Mawr Meadows Park strikes a sustainable balance between nature and recreation.

Highlights of the 56-acre park include a native landscape greenway and meadow comprising 9.5 acres of plants and grasses, plus 6.5 acres of pollinator-friendly turf for informal play fields.

Join us to celebrate the park's transformation, and the new (and old!) ways for people to enjoy it: 

• remarks from MPRB leaders and essential partners from the Basset Creek Watershed Management Commission and City of Minneapolis/Public Works
• ribbon cutting ceremony
• refreshments
• park tour (see below)

Thursday, October 24, 4:00pm to 5:30pm

Additional features of the redesign include two stormwater ponds to treat area runoff; a new playground and mountain-bike skills course; and two upgraded premier athletic fields - all connected via a one-mile walking loop. The Luce Line trail connects the park to the Grand Rounds and other citywide and regional trails. 

Every neighborhood deserves a great park. Improvements at Bryn Mawr Meadows Park were funded by NPP20, a historic agreement between the Minneapolis Park and Recreation Board (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.  Find out more minneapolisparks.org/NPP20 | email updates  1-minute video | 5 Years of Accomplishments: 2017–2021
