Moore Lake Park is located along Central Avenue just north of 694 in Fridley. Family friendly amenities include a playground, walking paths and a fishing pier. In the winter the city maintains a hockey rink at this location. There is off-street parking at this park. Indoor restrooms are included with community building rental. This lake is identified by the Minnesota DNR as a Fishing in the Neighborhood (FIN) Kids Ponds, which indicates it is a good lake for fishing with kids and beginners. Fish in this lake may include Bluegill, Black Crappie, Largemouth Bass, Northern Pike, Yellow Perch and Bullhead. Moore Lake Beach was nice when it was open, but it was closed in 2018. Apparently, a 2016 survey of Fridley residents came to the conclusion that slightly more than half of the residents found it too gross to swim in. The coming updates will be addressing water quality, but I don’t see plans to re-open the beach on the agenda. As part of the 2023 updates to Moore Lake Park, the City of Fridley built a new, modern community building. This beautiful pavilion offers lake views, an audio-visual system, a kitchenette and capacity of up to 72 people seated or 100 people open house style. Reservations opened in the spring of 2023 with options for half-day or full-day rentals. During the fall of 2023, the City of Fridley began updating this park. Planned improvements include: A Ribbon Cutting Ceremony is scheduled for Saturday, June 1, 2024. Learn more here.Related Articles:
