Overview
Church Street Park is a 1.72 acre park located in the Southeastern quadrant of Duluth, a few blocks south of Buford Highway on Church Street. Church Street Park is on a dead end road with little vehicular traffic. The park is in close proximity to two churches within a low income residential neighborhood. The park was developed in the mid 1990’s. Church Street Park’s topography is challenging due to steep slopes and few flat areas. The park has very few trees, and is somewhat of a barren environment. A large transmission line power easement crosses through the middle of the site, limiting the amount of trees that can be planted. The park consists of a pavilion and a 10 space parking lot at the northwestern end of the park. The southeastern end of the park includes a basketball court, swing-set, and several perpendicular, on-street parking spaces.
