Construction on University Park’s new nature-themed playground will begin this fall.

Located on the current site of the tennis courts behind University Park Elementary School, the highly anticipated playground will feature a play area for kids aged 2 to 5 and another for ages 5 to 12.

The image above, which does not include the fence, accessible paths and nearby trees, is the most up-to-date rendering of the future playground, though some colors will change on site.

Mayor Len Carey told the Hyattsville Wire that construction on the playground will begin in October and November, and fence and access ramps will be built later in the spring as the weather warms up. The playground is slated to open in late March or early April of 2018.

Through the Maryland Department of Natural Resources, the playground is largely funded by a a Community Parks and Playgrounds Grant
