Downtown Cary Park Project

More than twenty years in the making, the Downtown Cary Park totals seven acres in size and is centrally located in Downtown Cary surrounded by Walker, Academy, Park, and Walnut Streets. The park features a “great lawn” and unique, tiered water feature. The lawn is fronted by a pavilion and interspersed around the lawn are a series of unique spaces, or “rooms,” linked by paved walking trails. Additional features include performance places, market spaces, public art incorporated into the landscape, food, and beverage facilities, a play area, interactive water features, a dog play area, and walkways for strolling and relaxing. A key feature of the Downtown Park is the amount of proposed programming, including art exhibitions, arts and crafts classes, performances and concerts, cardio and fitness classes, book clubs, story time programs, and movies. The goal is to generate activity in the Park that will energize Downtown Cary.
