Project Description
In August 2025, the Englewood Parks, Recreation, Library and Golf Department was awarded a $500,000 grant from the Arapahoe County Open Spaces Fund towards renovations at Centennial Park.
Improvements include a storytime walk in collaboration with the Englewood Public Library, 10 new solar lighting along the trail, wildlife-informative signage, a bird blind and two ADA-accessible fishing docks. These improvements will enhance the park's accessibility, promote outdoor education and create a more enjoyable and sustainable experience for all visitors. We are thrilled to continue to invest in our parks to make Englewood a thriving place for everyone to enjoy! Construction is anticipated to last nine weeks, weather permitting.
Estimated Cost of Improvements:
$500,000 Arapahoe County Open Space Grant & Shareback Funds
In March 2017, Englewood City Council adopted the Parks and Recreation Master Plan to serve as a road map for future park development/redevelopment and provide a balance of facilities, amenities and recreation programs for the next 10 years.
In July 2023, the Department of Parks, Recreation, Library and Golf updated the 2017 Master Plan Recommendations Sections (Chapter 3) to outline key improvements to Englewood's parks, open spaces and facilities to meet the current needs and issues of the community.
