Meadowbrook Park Master Plan - Phase 1 Development

The City of Arlington has developed a Master Plan for Meadowbrook Park, Arlington’s first park that opened in 1924. In advance of the centennial celebration in 2024, Arlington Parks and Recreation contracted with Kimley-Horn and Associates in the preparation of the master plan.

The existing park is approximately 52 acres, inclusive of the park, golf course, and Eunice Activity Center. The final amenities for the park were determined by the City, consultant, stakeholder groups, and public through facilitated meetings, illustrated on the concept plan, and programmed into the final document. The scope of work for Kimley-Horn and Associates included physical site inventory and base map preparation, research history of park, research of comparable facilities, opportunities and constraints diagram, proposed programmatic plan, master plan development, stakeholder/public meetings, cost estimate and phasing diagram, and implementation plan.

The phase-1 development portion of the project includes the construction of an all-inclusive destination playground. The playground is tentatively scheduled to open in fall 2024 to coincide with the centennial celebration.

--------------------------

Located just one mile east of downtown Arlington, Meadowbrook Park has history on its side. Not only is it Arlington’s first city park and its first municipal golf course, both of which opened in 1924, but it also features the Meadowbrook Recreation Center, which was built in 1963 and is the city’s first indoor recreation center.

Besides a half-mile hike and bike trail, grills, and a basketball court, the park has a unique feature: a Monarch butterfly Waystation that provides resources necessary for Monarch butterflies to produce successive generations and sustain their migration. The 9-hole golf course consists of six par fours and three par threes. Its small greens and narrow fairways are designed to challenge every level of player and is fun for the whole family. The recreation center, along with the park’s pavilion, can be rented out for receptions, birthday parties and other functions through the Arlington Parks Department via email or by calling 817-459-5473.
