Home | Downtown Cary Park

Wander into wonder

A remarkable transformation is underway! Downtown Cary Park, the result of nearly 20 years of dreaming and inspired planning, will be a place to escape, unwind, revel in nature’s beauty and make new discoveries. This community-led project is a highly anticipated enhancement to Cary and the greater Triangle community that will be an iconic public space for all Cary citizens, a catalyst for future development of downtown, and a regional destination for central North Carolina.

Create through connection

Prepare to be blissfully immersed in a seven-acre urban oasis in the heart of Cary, looking forward to:

An active urban plaza alight with energy
A grab-and-go market just steps away from the fun
A signature, state-of-the-art children’s play space called The Nest
A dog park featuring its own Bark Bar for four- and two-legged friends
A large event lawn and pavilion for hours of weekend entertainment
Games courts for endless friendly competition
Expansive native gardens alive with activity

A robust programming and activity schedule is currently in the works with the help of local partners and sponsors, so there will be no shortage of fun for the whole family. Cary is known for innovation and vision, and there may be no better example than Downtown Cary Park. We have remained firmly committed to crafting a community space that will offer a lifetime of memory-making, and while we build it, we will continue to provide you ways to dream about how great this public space will be!
