Phase 3

An aerial view of the skatepark at the GND REC

Bringing some exciting additions to the GND REC

Key Facilities:
  • Skatepark
  • Small outdoor pavilion
  • Parking lot with sidewalks and outdoor lighting

Phase Three will bring to the Gary-New Duluth community a state-of-the-art Skateboard Park designed by nationally recognized skate park designer Mark Leski, aka “The Wizard”. The Skatepark will be unique to the city in that it utilizes an urban, streetscape design. The local skateboard community, lead by Damage Boardshop, is excited for the addition of the skateboard park. Not only will this park give the local youth a new facility, but it will attract people from the region to the local community!

Additionally, Phase Three will feature additional landscaping to further beautify the park.

WHERE ARE WE NOW?

We value and take pride in our community and each of its members, education, physical activity and our environment, those who promote positive actions and give back to our community, and appreciate the opportunity to have fun as we promote service in our community and strong personal relationships between its members.

Because of the incredible generosity of the Duluth community and beyond, we have raised the following in cash and in kind contributions of labor, services and materials.  Our citizens, businesses, trade unions, foundations and the City of Duluth have been truly amazing in their support.

WHAT CAN YOU DO?

The GND Community Center and Recreation Area is dedicated to providing a place to be used by members of the community for social, cultural, learning and recreational purposes.

The community is in a period of transition with many new people moving to the community. The GND REC provides the catalyst for bringing the community together, benefiting young people and seniors alike while instilling an overall sense of pride throughout the community.

We can’t get this project completed without your help!
