Amenities: Panorama, a 13.5-acre park located in southeast Colorado Springs, is the largest neighborhood park renovation in city history! It is chockablock full of features: universally accessible playground, event lawn, bike park, skate park, climbing boulder, multi-use sports field, fitness stations, splash pad, and community art.
Panorama Park is THE place for family fun in Southeast Colorado Springs.
History: Prior to the renovation, the majority of the land in Panorama Park was under developed. There was a small playground, baseball/softball backstop and benches, a small pavilion, picnic tables and a dirt parking lot. The groundbreaking for renovations began May of 2021 and the park’s grand reopening occurred in August of 2022.
The City invested $5.5 million, including $1 million from the Trails, Open Space and Parks (TOPS) sales tax, $4 million from Parkland Dedication Ordinance funds (PLDO) and $500,000 from 2018 TABOR retention funds, approved by voters in 2019. In addition to City funds, private and nonprofit organizations have contributed an additional $3 million. Thanks to these partners, Panorama Park has a strong design based on extensive outreach within the southeast community.
