The Town of Windsor has broken ground on its Eastman Park River Experience Phase II, located at Eastman Park South off Laku Lake Road. The project is one of many environmental initiatives taking place in conjunction with the Northern Integrated Supply Project (NISP).

Windsor is partnering with NISP to dedicate nine acres of land for wetland mitigation. This collaboration aims to enhance the overall environmental quality and recreational features for the benefit of Windsor, and as part of this dedication, a portion of Eastman Park South will be preserved as a wetland.

Phase ll also includes an additional parking lot, shelters, trail expansion, the installation of new Cache La Poudre River access points, a playground, landscaping and irrigation.

“We are thrilled to break ground this upcoming month on this highly anticipated project,” said Windsor’s Open Space & Trails Manager Wade Willis. “Our collaboration with NISP has played a pivotal role in enhancing the environment, wetlands and recreational features for the enjoyment of all.”

The completion of this project is anticipated in spring 2024.
