In 2021 the City adopted a new Park System Master Plan (Plan) which reflects approximately two years of community input to establish priorities for Bloomington Parks and help us make decisions on future park projects. Guiding priorities from the Plan are: natural resources, trails and mobility, new park amenities, and equity.

In summer 2022, staff consulted residents on potential amenities and design ideas for Tretbaugh park and later asked for further input on concept plans for the park.

Thanks to your engagement over the past year, the renovation design for Tretbaugh Park, 3701 West 90th Street, is moving ahead as we prepare for construction to begin in Summer of 2024. View the final design on the news feed below.

Based on public input, the reimagined park will feature a paved, all-wheel track and a gravel course for mountain bike skills development.

    On Tuesday, April 16, 2024, Park Maintenance staff will remove the building and 27 trees, including mostly boxelder but also non-native and invasive understory species like buckthorn, at Tretbaugh Park. This work is being done to prepare the site for the new bike skills features that will be constructed beginning late summer 2024, with anticipated completion in 2025. As part of this project, approximately 56 new trees and 2.5 acres of native landscape will be added to the park.

    The skating rink will remain in place and available as an off-leash area for dogs until mid-summer, at which time it will be removed to accommodate the start of construction. Park Maintenance staff are exploring the possibility of configuring the rink at Brookside Park as a replacement seasonal off-leash area for dogs.
