NEW Coventry PEACE Park

When the beloved Coventry P.E.A.C.E. Playground came to the end of its useful life, we decided to build a new park with features and amenities designed for our community. We asked and you answered in 7 community meetings and 700+ survey responses! With your help, we’re building a NEW Coventry PEACE Park!

What's NEW about Coventry PEACE Park?

  • Inclusive amenities designed to embrace people of all ages and abilities

    • Accessible Pathways re-graded for easier navigation, ensuring accessibility for everyone.

  • Exciting play areas

    • A 20-foot cardinal play structure, inviting exploration with opportunities to climb up, climb in, look out, and slide down.

    • Dedicated toddler playground for our youngest visitors.

    • Adventure awaits with a zipline, climbing wall, swings, half-court basketball, and more!

  • New gathering spaces

    • A stage for community events, performances, and gatherings.

    • A picnic grove and scattered benches to enjoy a meal or for working outdoors utilizing free Wi-Fi.

  • An eco-friendly oasis in the historic Coventry District

    • Over 100 new shade trees provide a cool retreat on sunny days.

    • Introducing native plants and a pollinator garden, fostering biodiversity and ecological balance.
