Situated in the middle of the thriving SoSA neighborhood (also known as the Cottage District), Red Andrews Park is set to receive a complete makeover.


The project will be conducted in two phases and is being funded with a combination of public and private funds.

Plans have been submitted to the Urban Design Commission to remove the large surface parking lot and redo all the landscaping while saving 10 mature trees.

A gymnasium that sits in the middle of the park will be addressed in a subsequent phase.


New on-street angled and parallel parking will be added on the surrounding streets.

New ADA sidewalks will replace the existing walkways and other additions include, picnic tables, bike racks, bench seating and lighting.


Currently the park is dominated by the parking lot on the north half of the block and long, winding sidewalks and the large north to south slope on the property. The new plans call for much more green space and reworking the sidewalks in a more integrated way.
