COOLEY PARK

Project Overview

Kansas City completed the master plan in 2018 for this 18-acre park. An existing creek bisects the park with significant topography change on the east side and flat mowed fields on the west side. The master plan promotes a range of amenities and features including sports fields and courts.

McClure was hired through a Design/Build contract with MegaKC to complete the first phase of work including three soccer fields, trail and parking improvements. Future phases would include a new playground and shelter, two volleyball courts, and two basketball courts.

Project Highlights:

• One full-size soccer field (180’ x 300’) and two youth soccer fields were installed with laser grading equipment and sod overlay.
• 1,800 foot trail winds around the fields and existing playground through a tree grove connecting walkers from parking to picnic areas.
• New asphalt overlay was provided for the expanded parking lot. Two ADA parking stalls were added.
