In Phase 1, RDG worked with the City of Bettendorf to implement early priorities of the Forest Grove Park Master Plan. 

Parks & Open Space

Phase 1 improvements—located on the southeast corner of the park, or “Community Corner,” adjacent to single-family residential neighborhoods—were designed in 2014 and constructed in 2015. The architectural character, aesthetics, ecological stormwater management elements and reconstructed prairie areas completed in Phase 1 establish the vernacular for future phases of the park.
