Reed Park 2023/2024 Renovations

About the Project

Reed Park is located in the heart of Fruita and was established in 1984. Aside from the programmed activities of Little Salt Wash, Reed Park is the heaviest-used park in Fruita. Reed Park has not undergone any significant improvements since being established. The location of Reed Park and the aged condition of many of the existing amenities create an opportunity for a valuable upgrade to the park's portfolio.

Currently, the City of Fruita is working with Design Workshop on a conceptual design of Reed Park including space for a future skate/wheel park. Based on the community input received during the PHROST Master Plan process, in 2023/2024, the City of Fruita has plans to renovate Reed Park with the following proposed renovations:

  • Replacing the existing restroom and shelter structure
  • Replacing the playground
  • Electrical upgrades for special events
  • Installation of a MiniPitch that will include basketball, soccer, and pickleball lines

These improvements will bring the facility up to current standards and provide a high-quality experience in the southeast downtown area while maintaining the flexibility of the park for downtown events.

Construction updates will be posted online under the City's Projects page.
