The Si View Metropolitan Parks District is set to embark on a transformative project with the construction of a new Administration Office, scheduled to commence in late January 2025. This strategic move aims to enhance operational efficiency and expand community engagement opportunities within the region.

Empowering Communities Through Modernized Infrastructure and Expanded Services

Preparation for Future Growth

The site preparation phase for the new Administration Office will kick off in early 2025, marking a significant milestone for Si View Metro Parks. Located east of Si View Park, nestled between SE Orchard Drive and Cedar Falls Way, this prime location will serve as the heart of administrative operations. The initial stages involve clearing and grading the land, ensuring that the facility is well-prepared to accommodate modern office requirements.Over the past two decades, Si View Metro Parks has seen an exponential increase in its role within the community. The park district now offers a broader range of services, from recreational activities to public events, which has led to a pressing need for additional office space. The new building will not only house all full-time staff but also feature versatile meeting spaces available for public use, fostering greater community interaction.

A Legacy of Service Continues

Currently, administrative functions are housed in the Caretaker’s Cottage, a quaint structure adjacent to the Si View Community Center and Pool. Once the new office complex is operational, the Caretaker’s Cottage will undergo a revitalization, transforming into an expanded hub for community recreation programs. This shift underscores the park district's commitment to maximizing resources and enhancing the quality of life for residents.Construction access will be seamlessly integrated via Cedar Falls Way, ensuring minimal disruption to daily traffic patterns. The project team has meticulously planned this phase to maintain smooth operations throughout the construction period. Residents can expect the new Administration Office to be fully functional by October 2025, heralding a new era of community engagement and service excellence.
