New Park Blocks dining deck, expected to be completed by early July.
The Park Blocks will be getting a mini-makeover, just in time for summer. Stay tuned over the next few weeks for these coming attractions:
A new dining deck (above) with daily food trucks as well as a beer garden happy hour every Friday.
Safety improvements with an extension of the curbs and sidewalks at the corners of Oak and Park streets. The changes will better link the two sides of the Park Blocks, making it safer to cross Oak Street.
A new trailer-mounted restroom with a self-contained flushing toilet and running water sink, attended by our Park Blocks Host.
Summer Reading at the Library
Eugene Public Library’s Summer Reading program helps youth keep their reading skills up while school’s out, learn new ideas and try new things.
All summer, visit any Eugene Public Library location to sign up and enjoy free events. Each child and teen gets to choose a free brand-new book to keep, courtesy of the Friends of the Library.
