Northwest Activities Center Park
Northwest Activities Center Park (18100 Meyers Rd) is a small neighborhood park at Curtis and Meyers, behind the recreation center. The park currently has a playground, garden, small picnic shelter, grass field and walking loop. The City of Detroit Parks and Recreation Division (DPRD) recently received funding for improvements at this Park.
Construction for this project will start in the summer of 2024 and be completed in the fall.
DPRD has held two meetings to hear what improvements would best serve local residents and families, the draft design shown below is based on that feedback. Please provide comments on the draft design and tell us what play and fitness amenities you and your family would like to see in the park:
