Several years ago, the City of Highwood developed the Everts Park Master Plan and a detailed design for various renovation and improvement phases. The next phase, nicknamed “Gateway Park,” is expected to break ground the week of March 3 and continue throughout the spring.
Located at the corner of Green Bay Rd and North Ave, the new park will serve as a “gateway” entrance to Everts Park. The expansion will feature a lawn, walking path, and an irrigation system for the park’s existing footprint. If Mother Nature cooperates, the park will open to the public in Summer 2025!
