Garfield park is located at 250 Burton St SE in Grand Rapids.
Garfield Park also has a playground, picnic shelter, ping pong table, plenty of green space, and disc golf course.
According to the City of Grand Rapids, the new splash pad area will include multiple spray features, upgraded restroom facilities, shade and picnic areas, and a custom entryway/public art piece.
Funding for the Garfield Park Splash Pad comes from a $300,000 Michigan Department of Natural Resources Trust Fund grant, a $10,000 donation from the Meijer Foundation to Friends of Grand Rapids Parks, and a voter-approved parks millage.
The City of Grand Rapids says construction on the new splash pad is expected to be completed later this summer.
