New North Braddock Green Space Project

About This Project

Three sites in North Braddock are being considered as potential locations for new public green spaces. These sites of interest were selected by a paid cohort of nine North Braddock residents after a period of time looking at data and existing community plans.

We are seeking community feedback on the below draft site design ideas, created by LBA Landscape Architects after the initial public site design input meeting held in February 2026.

Please note that the Recycle Park site is owned by the borough while the other two sites would need to go through an acquisition process before construction could begin. Also, the new design for Recycle Park is attempting to honor, incorporate and refresh past designs for the park from a community engagement process hosted by the library about ten years ago.
