South Greensboro Area Plan

Woodlea Acres Park 1

Opportunities: » Enhance visibility into the park from surrounding streets by continuing to clear vegetation. » Improve access by allowing on street parking on the east side of Lakefield Drive along the park property edge. » Flatter areas around the existing playground and tennis courts could support additional park facilities, but some tree clearing may be necessary. » Improve the western edge and southern corner of the property to be more inviting; update/add signage, public art and lighting. » Consider a sidewalk/walking trail loop around the park perimeter.

Woodlea Acres Park is a 13.68 acre neighborhood park surrounded by residential areas to the north, east, and south. The western boundary includes a mix of undeveloped City of Greensboro-owned land and vacant private property. Much of the park is heavily wooded, with limited visibility from surrounding roads to the interior of the park due to dense tree cover, underbrush and elevated

terrain. Surrounding streets have “No Parking” signs displayed. Type: Neighborhood Park Amenities:
