Call For OurSpace Park Volunteer Builders

BINGHAMTON, N.Y. – (RealEstateRama) — OurSpace at Recreation Park is revitalizing a four acre parcel of the City of Binghamton’s Recreation Park with a design that is fully adaptive and inviting for all members of our community. OurSpace’s unique design includes a new Adaptive Playground, a Tree Deck, Raised Garden Beds, Game Tables and Natural Play Areas.

The project’s planning invited the needs of our entire community into the conversation. From young families, our aging friends, families and individuals with special needs, community members and neighborhood friends; organizers gathered a long list of “wishes” for the park. The resulting design creates a safe space to play for all members of our community.

In an innovative approach, the OurSpace will be built with the help of community volunteers — friends, co-workers, student groups, non-profits and others — who are energized to put their mark on this historic project. Community build dates are as follows:
