Santee Road Park is beginning to take shape! Santee Road Park will be a low-impact conservation park developed in collaboration with Durham County and local stakeholders. The site’s rural character, surrounded by wooded areas and single-family homes, provides a unique opportunity to connect to the Mountains-to-Sea Trail and nearby recreational attractions. The design will prioritize climate resilience, preserving tree canopies and addressing flood risks, while outreach efforts will target underrepresented groups to foster engagement and ensure the park reflects the needs of the surrounding communities. ? #surface678 #durhamcounty #landscapearchitecture
