Spartan Community Park was designed as a destination park for the local community and included a coordinated program and site design to share resources with the adjacent high school property. Pedestrian connections for walking and cycling linked the parcels together. Spartan Community Park provided opportunities for active adults, senior programs and after school programs including fitness, health and wellness classes, outdoor and environmental education, a PA native wild sculpture garden and various programming space for the arts and music. A multipurpose sport field, paddle courts, basketball, walking trail, playground and a splash pad completed the design.
The 17-acre Spartan Community Park and 4.5-acre Walden Neighborhood Parklet required completely different programs, staffing, maintenance and operation requirements and strategy for design. Each park considered existing recreation resources and programming offered by the township to compliment and provide park users with best solutions, attractive programming and complimentary facility design.
Walden Neighborhood Parklet included a variety of program opportunities for all ages including a nature play area, wetland preservation and wetland board walk with view shelters, educational nature programs, interpretive signing, waking routes, picnic space and a small playground and pavilion with a restroom.
