Fisher Street Park Relocation - Public Art Survey 1
Fisher Street Park Relocation - Public Art Survey 1
About the Project
The City of Raleigh, through the Housing & Neighborhoods Department, is facilitating the development of approximately 150 single-family homes and townhomes in College Park. As part of this City Council-approved development plan, the existing Fisher Street Park will be relocated to the corner of Fisher and Pender Streets. The park relocation project is currently in the design phase.
Based on public input during the initial phases of the park planning process, the new Fisher Street Park’s design will feature a playground, basketball court, passive park amenities, and a public art component.
