Carol and Gordon ParhamTot Lot Groundbreaking Ceremony
The ground breaking ceremony for the new Tot Lot in University City was held on August 24. City and community leaders were in attendance for the long awaited Tot Lot located at University Village Park, at the intersection of Florey Street and Cather Avenue (at Gullstrand Street).
Construction for the Tot Lot is scheduled to conclude in Winter 2017, which when completed will include a play area for children from ages 2 to 5, and related accessibility improvements for persons with disabilities. Other improvements will include walkways, landscaping, drainage improvements, picnic facilities, and a drinking fountain.
San Diego City Council President Sheri Lightner stated that she is “extremely pleased to see construction of this Tot Lot begin. The community has been waiting for decades to see this Tot Lot installed. It will be a great addition for the young families living in the surrounding neighborhoods.”
Special recognition goes out to Gordon and Carol Parham, two important UC residents that have championed for the Tot Lot for many years.
