Current Park Project - East Village Green

East Village Green Plan

East Village Green is a proposed 4.1 acre park bounded by F, G, 13th and 15th streets in the East Village neighborhood of Downtown.  East Village will accommodate a majority of Downtown’s residential population, ultimately growing to 46,000 residents.  After a series of public workshops to determine the desired amenities for the park, the General Development Plan was approved by the Parks and Recreation Board in November, 2015.  The East Village Green Phase 1 park project is approximately two acres and includes the reconstruction of 14th Street within the park’s boundaries.  The Project is located on a full 60,000 square-foot (SF) block bounded by 13th, F, 14th and G streets, a 20,000 SF site at the northeast corner of 14th and G streets, and a small site along the south side of F Street between 14th and 15th streets which will accommodate the relocation of two historic buildings.

The Phase 1 project will contain the following main elements:

  • Two-story, 14,200 SF community center
