On Tuesday the City Council approved in concept the recommended master plan for Carlsbad’s newest park. Veterans Memorial Park will be located near the corner of Faraday Avenue and Cannon Road, providing sweeping views of the ocean and Agua Hedionda Lagoon.
Designed in collaboration with the community, Veterans Memorial Park will:
Bring the first bike park to Carlsbad, where families can try their off-roading skills.
Feature trails, a nature-inspired playground and several elements that honor those who have served our country.
The master plan report has the park layouts and renderings that will give you a feel for what to expect.
There is still a bit of process to get through before construction can start – the area is home to sensitive habitat, and the environmental review and permitting process will take some time. Construction will take about a year and a half. Based on the current schedule, it will be about five years total until the park will be open for use.
