Commerce City celebrates new park groundbreaking




Commerce City broke ground on a new park in the Fronterra neighborhood.

This marks the second project under construction in the $137 million capital improvement program approved by voters in 2013. One of three new neighborhood parks to be built in the next five years, the 19.8-acre site will include a hillside slide, a small skate park, playgrounds, multiuse fields and courts, picnic shelters and restrooms.

The park, at 101st Way and Joplin Street, is scheduled to open late 2015 or early 2015.

Currently all but one of the voter-approved projects is in an active phase of design or construction.
