Press release from the City of Raleigh: Jan 24, 2022 We want to hear from you! Please share your feedback on the Devereux Meadow Park draft concept plan. The City of Raleigh Parks, Recreation and Cultural Resources Department is in the concept design phase for the proposed Devereux Meadow Park.  This new urban park location is north of downtown Raleigh, near the intersection of Capital Boulevard and Peace Street.  Starting on February 7, 2022, the public is invited to review the draft concept plans. The proposed Devereux Meadow Park is envisioned as a passive park with pathways and trails, gathering spaces, natural areas, and opportunities for public art and environmental and historical interpretation of the site.   A key part of the proposed park design is the restoration of Pigeon House Branch, a stream currently in a straight, urbanized channel along West Street. On February 7th, Raleigh Parks will post project videos and a public survey on the project website.  At your convenience until March 9th, all are invited to view the videos and take our survey. An open house will take place on Saturday, February 12th, 10 am - 2 pm at Halifax Park, 1023 Halifax St., Raleigh.  Raleigh Parks staff and project consultants will be on hand to review the draft concept plan, answer questions, and take comments.  The open house will be an outdoor event near the community center. Project information. Project videos and survey will be available on the website starting February 7th.  Visit Raleigh Parks COVID-19 page for the latest information and guidance.   This press release was produced by the City of Raleigh.
