Wilson Street Park getting more playground equipment

City employees were installing more new playground equipment at the Wilson Street Park Wednesday as part of an overall playground improvement project.

The installation, funded by a grant from Toyota, includes a variety of musical instruments in front of the former swimming pool location off South Central Avenue.

On Wednesday, they were installing a swing set for younger children.

Renovation of the park calls for landscaping, benches and tables and possibly adding a small stage or performance area. The nearby community center has been renovated as well and more landscaping is planned around the center as well.
