Donated by the Pedro family, Pedro Park is a formerly-vacant, downtown plot of land that will eventually be developed into a permanent park. It is currently the site of the “Urban Flower Field” project. In 2023, the city will demolish the Public Safety Building located next to the flower field to expand the park.

Pedro Park Urban Flower Field

The Urban Flower Field was built to be “intersection of art, science, a community and a civic process”. Installed in 2014, it is part of an initiative to turn vacant spaces into community gathering places. The Urban Flower Field is a low-cost way to beautify this space for the short-term until the permanent park is built.

Updates to Pedro Park

The Public Safety Annex building on the park’s site will be removed in spring 2023, and an updated park concept plan has been prepared. The park will be temporarily inaccessible during demolition.
