Dear Mr. Birch:
I am writing on behalf of the Department of Parks and Recreation to inform you and the
Columbia Heights West Civic Association, that a notice to proceed has been issued for
October 1, 2015 and you should soon be seeing construction activity at the playground
at Tyrol Hills Park. This project is being funded through the County’s Neighborhood
Conservation Program. The project focuses on the playground redesign featuring new
play equipment, a new picnic shelter and the accessibility at 5101 7th Street South
which will all be implemented according to current playground safety guidelines and
ADA standards.
Construction is anticipated to begin early October 2015 with an anticipated completion
in Winter 2016. Additional information can be found on the County’s web site at
http://projects.arlingtonva.us/projects/tyrol-hills-park-columbia-heights-nc-park-improvementproject/
. I would appreciate it if you would share this information with your
neighborhood.
Should you have any questions or concerns during the construction, don’t hesitate to
contact Tunji Akiwowo, County Project Construction Manager at 703.228.7926 or
takiwowo@arlingtonva.us.
Sincerely,
Kathy von Bredow
