ABOUT RESTORATION PARK

In addition to housing 32 free beds for the Urban Greens community garden, Restoration Park provides open space overlooking the Muskingum River. This park has been the location for several community events including a food truck rally, local harvest parties, and a summer movie series. As the park has become more active in recent years, community support has made several developments possible, including a living willow structure by local artist Howard Peller, the planting of fruit trees, a big dipper installation that pays homage to the area's involvement in the Underground Railroad, and plans for a natural earth stage for entertainment and music. 

The park is located on the west side of the intersection of Muskingum Avenue and Putnam Avenue. While the park is located in the historic Putnam neighborhood, it is open for all residents and visitors to use and enjoy.
