Align the use of built structures with a park’s goals to enhance the user experience.
Programmed buildings and structures within parks should align with the overall goals of a park’s vision plan and address the needs/desires of the local community.
Design structures for flexibility in programming.
Offering a wide range of programs within a park fosters a more inclusive environment that welcomes people from all backgrounds. It also encourages consistent use of the park throughout all seasons. Consider how structures can serve multiple functions and user groups. For example, park commissary kitchens could accommodate camp and afterschool programs and also be available to rent to vendors during non-program hours.
