Liberty Park Improvements
November 2025 Update
Liberty Park is a 9-acre neighborhood park located off Emerald Street on the Central Bench, and Boise Parks and Recreation is excited to invest in improvements at the park in the near future. Improvements to the park include replacing the existing playground, which is the oldest in the department’s inventory, with new equipment featuring accessible elements and surfacing. A new permanent restroom will also be constructed using approximately $500,000 in Energize Our Neighborhood funds as part of the project. Impact fees, which are collected based on growth and development in the area, will fund new site amenities such as nature play features, landscaping, park seating and more.
These improvements will create a more inclusive and welcoming experience at the park, which is within a 10-minute walk of 1,090 residents. The budget for the playground replacement is nearly $1 million in capital dollars and was approved by the Boise City Council as part of the city’s 2026 fiscal year budget.
Boise Parks and Recreation will engage neighbors and the community on the design of the new playground in 2026. A construction timeline has not been set yet, but initial design work has begun for the anticipated improvements on site.
