Skate Parks |
Northside Aztlan Community Center |
The City of Fort Collins' first skate park, located at 112 W. Willow, was constructed in 1994 and consisted of 5 plywood ramps. In spring 2001, a large wooden half-pipe was added. The park is free to the public and open year-round. |
Edora Skateboard Park |
The Edora Skate Park opened Sept. 7, 2001. The 17,500-square-foot concrete facility boasts snake runs, bowls, ramps and rails. The integrated design allows for a seamless flow between park structures, while also catering to varying expertise levels. Located between the Edora Pool Ice Center (EPIC) and the ballfields and tennis courts at Edora Park, the skate park is accessible via the City's transit system as well as Spring Creek Trail. The $385,000 project was made possible, in part, through funding from the 1996 Building Community Choices ballot, Great Outdoors Colorado, the Larimer County Juvenile Probation Department's community cookbook project, and public and private contributions. The park is free to the public and open year-round. |
