Alvernon Park

Problems with inappropriate use of the park are being closely monitored by concerned neighbors. Identified problems are discussed directly with law enforcement and others, as well as in the monthly Alvernon/5th St Crime Coalition meetings. Monitoring continues of park improvements.

Notes on the park upgrade project are here.
