South Taylor Street Park Revitalization
South Taylor Street Park Revitalization
The Town of Ashland is revitalizing South Taylor Street Park to create a more accessible, active, and inclusive community space. Guided by the 2024 concept plan developed with the Timmons Group, the redesigned park will feature a new basketball/futsal court, expanded walking loops, interactive play areas, and improved landscaping. Key amenities include a new parking area, inclusive play equipment, a state-of-the-art high school sized basketball and futsal court, and an ADA accessible walking loop. The playground, installed in 2022, and picnic shelter will remain.
Construction is being completed by Talley & Armstrong, with work expected to be finished by winter 2026. Once complete, the updated park will offer a vibrant mix of recreation, play, and gathering opportunities for residents of all ages. Currently, the park is open, but visitors are asked not to enter the fenced in areas.
