Chandler Park is Detroit’s fourth largest park with 200 acres of sports fields, sports courts, skate park, walking paths, aquatic facility, and a golf course. The park is located at 12600 Chandler Park Drive on Detroit's east side.
Current Projects
New cameras and lighting are being installed in the park to provide increased security and safety within park areas. The addition of cameras and lighting will also enhance accessibility for park users when there is less daylight during open park hours. Construction will strive to have minimal impact (bored / trenched along the roadway), as well as wildlife will be considered in the light pole design. The number and exact location of light poles and cameras will be determined on a design and build basis.
Learn more about the project by viewing this presentation: Detroit Parks Lighting & Cameras Presentation
Meetings will be held to present information about the project on December 15th & 22nd at 5pm online. If interested in attending, please join the meeting using the following information:

Improvements Coming to Chandler Park - New Indoor Recreation!
The City of Detroit General Services Department is currently in the construction documents stage for a new recreation facility at Chandler Park, the results of many years of community input and planning efforts, as well as recognizing the need to address a "gap" in access to public recreation facilities in this part of the City. We are gathering input on what types of activities you and your family would like to do in this space, to best design the space to serve the needs of the community.
