Ballard Playground Athletic Field Improvements

Spring 2025

Due to unfavorable weather conditions in winter, we are making slow progress in completing the remaining fieldwork, including irrigation, soil amendment, and planting. We anticipate partial reopening at both of the infields to accommodate for team practices in late March. The outfield will remain closed until new grass is fully established.

Construction Impact:

• The entire field will be closed during construction, including exterior women's/men's restrooms, backstops/bleachers area, walkways, drinking fountain, and the table tennis area.
• The parking lot is open except for the new accessible walkway area. It is still fenced off until we complete the installation of the handrails.
• The exterior space near the south building entrance is now fenced off for paving and drainage work in this area. Outdoor preschool space is available through the south entrance or walkway near the exterior women's/men's restrooms behind the community center building. 

Both the community center and the play area will remain open during the construction.
