Playground Design

Homestead Neighborhood Park (1911 SE 159th Pl.) is getting a new playground! This 6.2-acre park serves the Cascade Highlands, Cascade Southeast and Fairway/164th Ave. neighborhoods in east Vancouver.

The approved design includes:

  • Play areas for ages 2-5 and 5-12 with a mix of artificial turf and engineered wood fiber
  • Swings
  • Shadow play flower art piece
  • New nature play log scramble area
  • New and replaced furnishings including bike rack, benches and trash can

Project Overview

Installed in 1991, the play equipment at Homestead Neighborhood Park is in poor condition. It does not meet current ADA standards and will become a safety concern if it is not replaced. In 2024, Vancouver Parks, Recreation & Cultural Services will replace the play equipment to better serve the surrounding neighborhoods.

The budget for this project is focused on replacing the play equipment in the existing playground location and adding a few additional amenities. The Cascade Highlands Neighborhood Association has also secured funding for two new benches, which will be placed along the walking path during playground construction.
