Alden Playground

Alden Park

Alden Park is located on Sacramento Street near the Baldwin School in the Baldwin neighborhood and plays an important role as both a neighborhood play area and a school recess playground.   

This project has been completed. No further updates to this project page will be made.

The 2006 renovations to Alden Park included a full replacement of the play equipment along with upgrades to the playground area and involved a series of public meetings to hear the comments, concerns, and ideas of park users, the neighborhood community, as well as the Baldwin School students, parents and staff.

A first public meeting in June 2005 collected comments to inform the preliminary design.  Community members offered their thoughts on how the park is currently used, what does or doesn't work well, and how people might like to see the park improved.  There were also many comments submitted by letter, e-mail, and phone.  At a second meeting held in October 2005 residents reviewed and commented on a preliminary park design.
