The idea
Mozart Park needs revitalization. We propose native landscaping, a pollinator garden, dog space, play upgrades, and adult fitness equipment to transform it into a vibrant, inclusive, and active community hub of health, learning, and connection.
Who it helps and why
Our project promotes health through active play, fitness equipment, and nature access. It advances equity by improving a public space in a diverse, historically underserved neighborhood, ensuring free, inclusive opportunities for exercise, learning, and connection, especially for residents without access to private yards, gyms, or green space.
