Central Park
Central Park, located at 8595 Central Park Place, is a multi-use indoor park that provides a focal point that establishes the City Center area as the heart of our city. Woodbury will never have the conventional sort of downtown that brought people together in the older cities. But the park, which links a new Washington County branch library on one end and the existing YMCA on the other, is designed to bring a cross-section of the community together. With activities for a wide range of age groups - from toddlers to teens to seniors - the park, coupled with the new library, enhances our sense of community in Woodbury. As a year-round, multi-use indoor facility, Central Park also provides space for passive recreational activities, complementing other city parks and facilities which are designed for more active recreational uses. As a result, the indoor park provides more variety while helping to balance recreation programming. In planning for Central Park, the City Council tried to develop a vision for our future community. It is not enough to plan only for essential services, such as fire stations, water wells, and roadways. We also need to make provisions for facilities that will help Woodbury remain a desirable place to live, work, raise a family, and retire in the future. The park opened in September 2002.
