Corey Hill Park is located at the crest of Summit Avenue. The southern parcel contains an active play equipment area and lawn and the northern parcel contains an attractive overlook of Boston, trees over lawn and an open grassed slope, sundial, and seating. The playground, last renovated in 1989, is in need of complete replacement including site regrading and accessibility improvements. This project will replace all play structures at the site and review the layout and design of the active playground portion of the park. Renovations will improve safety, accessibility and multi-generational accommodations. Masonry work, benches, walkways, planting, and other site amenities will be included with this renovation.
Construction is completed! The park will remain closed for the next couple of weeks to let the grass grow in and become established. We are planning a grand re-opening celebration on Saturday October 28, 2017 from 2-4pm at the park, we hope to see you there!

Corey Hill Construction is almost completed. The contractor Jame T. Construction has finished the sundial paving and the remainder of the concrete work. This week they are working on the coring of the concrete, watering the new plants and lawn and cleaning up the construction site.

Corey Hill construction is continuing with contractor Jamie T. Construction. Last week the crew started on the water play area in the playground. The stream bed was formed out of concrete, the plumbing was installed for the water spray feature, the farm pump and the water fountain. Boulders have all been installed around the water play area. This week they will install the exercise equipment, install water features and start the concrete paving. On the passive side of the park they have completed the pathway, overlook and picnic area layout and they have installed the base materials to prepare for paving. The next steps will be asphalt paving, furniture, sundial, and plant installation. The park is scheduled to be completed by Fall 2017. There is access to the hill part of the green dog park during construction. If you have any questions or comments please feel free to contact Jessie Waisnor at 617-264-6490 or [email protected]gov.
