Walter Reed Local Redevelopment Authority Community Advisory Committee meeting – February 11, 2019
Who: 50+ Parents, Children, and Community MembersWhy: To get the community’s feedback on site programming, recreation equipment, and retail options. What Did We Learn:
People want options. The community wants offerings that appeal to the whole family from little kids to big kids to adults. People want flexibility. They want spaces that can be used for multiple activities, equipment that can be used by multiple ages, and more. Ideas included zip lining, dog parks, truck touches, art sculptures and much more!People want indoor and outdoor spaces. Playgrounds are great, but people want indoor recreational spaces too.
