The Old Town Park, commonly known as the "skatepark," is located on Main Street between John Street and the railroad tracks. The project consists of a multi-use facility for skateboarders, in-line skaters and BMX bikers, perimeter sidewalks, lighting, landscaping and construction of a structure for shelter and viewing.
The first phase, which consisted of design, engineering and construction of the skating facility, and the installation of storm drainage and underground utilities, was completed during the 1997/98 and 1998/99 fiscal years. A revised Old Town Park plan was approved by Talent's City Council on December 19, 2001.
