When the multi-family development at the corner of Purnell and Mill Street was approved by the City, dedication of a small pocket park between the development and Sullivan’s BBQ was negotiated. The City hired Studio Outside to provide landscape architectural and engineering design services. Additionally, the City worked closely with Sullivan’s BBQ to ensure they had input into the design. The park will include seating that is integrated into the landscaping, shade and an open area that will allow for residents to hang out and observe live musical events hosted by Sullivan’s.

 

The project went out for bid at the end of 2024 and after reviewing the proposals the City selected Fain Group, LLC to execute the project. The contractor will break ground this Spring, and construction is expected to take about 4-5 months.
