Northcliff Neighborhood Park is open!

While we previously said that the park would officially open tomorrow, we want people to take advantage of today's beautiful weather and enjoy the new park.

Shelton’s newest park results from a years-long collaboration between Northcliff neighborhood residents, the Parks and Recreation Advisory Committee, and Parks and Recreation staff.

Northcliff Neighborhood Park is a 1.75-acre neighborhood park designed to primarily serve the areas of Terrace Heights, Barnhard Street, Jones Street, and Northcliff Road. City staff previously identified this area as underserved for outdoor parks and recreation space.

In December, 34 volunteers braved inclement weather to help install the park’s new playground. Volunteers worked for six hours, under the supervision of Parks and Recreation professional staff. The playground features a slide, climbing features, and a spinami. Volunteers worked for a total of 145 hours on the installation project.

Thank you to all the volunteers, donors, residents, and community groups for their tireless efforts and support of this project.
