Sunset Park Improvement Project
South Suburban is excited to announce the Sunset Park Improvement Project! This project will bring upgraded playgrounds for ages 2-5 and 5-12, a new shade structure, and upgraded site amenities, including bike racks, picnic tables, and benches. Additionally, we’ll be installing new ADA-compliant walkways to ensure a more accessible park for all.
As we plan these improvements, we’re carefully considering existing site constraints, such as the overhead electric lines and the Aurora Water line easement.
