We are pleased to report Grey Hawk Neighborhood Park is complete. Over the past 8 months, we have hired approximately five contractors to help us complete the park this year. We have brought in the project below our budgeted of 2.2 million at about 1.8 million. Our community now has a new accessible and inclusive 6500 sf playground, walking loops, a multi-use half court space, a multi-use field, seating (benches, picnic table, and boulders), shade trees and a shelter, and the natural area with winding soft surface trails and a look out point. The park provides community outdoor opportunities for imagination and exploration, and a place to meet neighbors and build community.
Be sure to post or send images showing your park adventures and tell us how this park positively impacts you, your family and friends.
Please join us on December 10th at 1:30 pm for a short Ribbon Cutting ceremony at the park. Bring your family, friends, and furry friends (on leash of course) to celebrate!
About
The master plan process to design and develop Grey Hawk Neighborhood Park (4.47 Acre) was approved by the Colorado Springs Parks, Recreation and Cultural Services Advisory Board in March 2024. This undeveloped neighborhood park asset came to the city in 2007 through the park land dedication ordinance. The park is located at 950 Spectrum Loop (Lot 276 Grey Hawk at North Gate Filing No. 1) within the Northgate Master Plan and Grey Hawk subdivision on the north side of Colorado Springs, CO and can be accessed from either Northgate Blvd or Voyager Parkway.
The City of Colorado Springs Parks, Recreation and Cultural Services Department (PRCS) hired The Architerra Group to support the design process. The goal was to develop a vision for the new neighborhood park that was driven by resident input and addressed the needs and desires of the community. The public plays a vital role in shaping the future of our parks and open spaces and we thank you for your participation in the design of Grey Hawk Park.

Outreach/ Meeting information
The six month master plan public outreach process included three public meetings with two online surveys so that surrounding neighbors and the public at large could participate in the process and inform the master plan design.
Public Meeting #3- Draft Master Plan
During the third and final neighborhood public meeting, we went over the proposed park master plan design based upon project goals, public survey feedback, public standards, existing topography and vegetation, and project budget.
