McEuen workshop is Thursday

COEUR d'ALENE - A public workshop will be held to gather input and ideas on McEuen Field and Front Avenue at 6 p.m. Thursday at the Lake City Senior Center.

MIG, a Portland-based land planning firm that worked on the Coeur d'Alene Parks Master Plan and the Education Corridor, will be hosting the workshop.

The city is asking for citizens' ideas on their favorite existing and possible future activities for McEuen Field, which has been the site of many varied types of recreation and leisure over the past 100 years.

It will remain a public park and there may be improvements made to the park site.

In 2002, a revised park concept was submitted by the city-appointed Committee of Nine. At that time, a set of seven, value statements were adopted. Those value statements will be on display to confirm that they still apply to this waterfront park area.

Front Avenue has been targeted for re-construction for the past several years and will be part of the larger, McEuen project discussion.
