The Great Park at Morgan Falls

On October 14, 2004 an RFP for the Design of the Great Park at Morgan Falls Phase 1 was released. We are excited to announce that Eberly & Associates was selected and a contract awarded on December 8, 2004 . Their work is underway. Phase 1 amenities includes development of the Bull Sluice area of the Great Park at Morgan Falls. Eberly & Associates will prepare a design for an open air pavilion, a canoe/kayak dock, trail placement on the 25 acre parcel, parking, invasive species removal, signage for trails, landscaping, a new gate and a new monument sign for the park, and more. The construction phase to build these amenities will begin after the design is complete.

The open air pavilion will be constructed as part of Phase 1 made possible by the generous funding of Northside Hospital as part of their wellness campaign. Download an architectural rendering of the pavilion in PDF format.

Many other components of Phase 1 remain unfunded and we appreciate community support through donations and volunteer time.  Please contact Executive Director Linda Bain at 770-393-1993.
