Here’s how the Sam Moore Parkway playground looks now — help us finalize its design for the future!
As you know, City of Newport is planning a new playground for Newport’s Sam Moore Park.
We need your input!! Before our playground designers start construction, we need to hear from our community, including youth, residents with and without children, park lovers, youth program staff, community organizations, fitness enthusiasts, and all the people who live outside the city but travel here to enjoy Newport’s historic park.
There are two survey formats – an online survey that can be completed by both youth and adults, and a PDF printable survey that can be completed and turned in at the Newport Recreation Center. The survey was developed based on preliminary concepts that will work with the size, configuration, and access needs at the current playground site. We have listed the three playground designs for viewing. Please take a close look at each design and let us know your general likes/dislikes of the potential layouts.
Option A: MRC Gametime Playground Design
Option B: Playworld Northwest Playground Equipment Design
Option C: Landscape Structures Ross Recreation Equipment Playground Design
Feedback collected from the survey will be used to refine concepts, which will be presented at a future Newport City Council meeting.
