Active Projects
Project Description
Recreation and Parks has initiated a project at Downs Park to survey, inspect, and evaluate the conditions of the existing unprotected portions of the Park's shoreline. The effort will review and repair the areas damaged by the October 2021 Nor'easter storm, and relocate and expand the dog beach. The project will plan, design, permit, and construct repairs and improvements as required to further protect the shoreline from erosion and the impacts of climate change and to enhance both the access to and use of the dog beach and surrounding area.
