COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. (KOAA) — After years of waiting, a neighborhood in Colorado Springs is finally getting a park. A groundbreaking happened Friday for Grey Hawk Park in the northeastern part of the city.
News5 has been following the progress of the project for more than five years.
Thanks to a layering of four funding sources, construction can now start.
The plan for this park was approved last March. Work is expected to be done within a year.
