CPRD Paves Blaine St. to Ewing Young Park


CPRD paved Blaine Street from West 9th Street Thursday, smoothing the way for travelers to Ewing Young Historical CPRD Park. This stretch of road had been dirt and gravel until now.

Ewing Young Historical Park is home to a 12-hole Disc Golf course, Bicycle Motorcross (BMX) Track, skate park, and the future dog park, which is being built at the entrance to the park. (Drive down the newly paved road and you can get a peek at the progress.)

The District has long wanted to do this in order to reduce dust raising during dry months and make a safer, more pleasant trip to the park. Because the park is frequented by bicyclists and skateboarders, this will benefit more travelers than just automobile drivers.
