In 2019, the Urbana Park District announced their plan to replace the beloved Prairie Play structure at Meadowbrook Park. We felt a lot of feelings about it, but the reasoning is solid. It’s difficult to maintain, and it is not accessible for all kids.
Because of pandemic delays, the structure is going to stick around a bit longer. Chambanamoms shared the new timeline today — the rebuild will now happen in 2023. You can read more about the plans here.
So, take advantage of the additional two years to enjoy this unique structure!
