CORNER PARK
EXISTING: This vacant lot at the corner of Broad Street and Elm Street sits a block away from the courthouse square in downtown Lumpkin. This space currently serves as overflow parking for police vehicles. The highly visible, flat expanse of lawn could provide opportunities for recreation.
PROPOSED: This concept rendering shows the vacant lot transformed into a downtown park. Amenities include a splash pad, restrooms, a playground, picnic tables, and a basketball court. The foreground shows crosswalks and new sidewalks to encourage pedestrian access to the park. This corner was home to a blacksmith in the early 20th century, inspiring the name Blacksmith Park.
