On May 13th, the Town of Nags Head held their grand opening celebration for Dowdy Park. CLH served as lead consultant for Phase I design and construction services for this new park. The park supports passive and active recreational uses and includes play areas that are inclusive for all ages and needs, lawn seating and benches, art incorporated into play elements, on-site parking, stormwater management, and flexible spaces for interactive programming. The event plaza and pavilion along with the multi-use turf area is available to host events and activities such as concerts, performances, art shows, festivals, group and individual fitness activities, outdoor classroom space for educational programs, farmers’ market, and other community social gatherings. CLH staff had a great time celebrating the opening of this park with the Town of Nags Head community!
