Grant from Duke Brings New Oaks to Pride Park: Thanks to a grant from Duke, the city is planting six new oaks along the concert field at Pride Park. As they grow, they will provide shade for those who come to enjoy summer events on the new concert stage that will be constructed later this spring. The stage construction is funded by a Land and Water Conservation Fund grant.
Sidewalks at the corner of Pride Parkway and Grand Avenue are currently being repaired and work should be concluded in the next few days. A section of sidewalk along Taylor Mill Road and a small section along Pride Parkway across from Blackstone will also be repaired. Please be cautions of workers in those areas.
