Sustainable Site Design Planned For Michael Zone Recreation Center Draft design concepts for the Michael Zone Recreation Center greenspace were presented at a community meeting May 5th, 2005 from 6-8pm in the Zone Rec gym. More than 35 community residents attended and offered suggestions and comments. Michael Zone Recreation Center includes 22 acres of greenspace in the EcoVillage neighborhood. This large open space offers an opportunity to become a national demonstration of how an urban park can best contribute to sustainable urban living. The Cleveland EcoVillage is working in partnership with ParkWorks and the City of Cleveland Parks, Recreation and Properties department to create a new site design for Zone Rec. In March 2005 the consultant team of McKnight Associates, Davey Resources, and artist Stephen Manka was chosen to help create the park design. Community input generated at a series of public workshops over the past two years, ecological design principles, and opportunities for environmental education and public art were incorporated into the design.
