Molly Pickall, campaign director for The Trust for Public Land, said creating the public park is a $16.1 million effort. That space could be open as early as June once a remodel is complete. Late last year, the Trust for Public Land donated the former Boys & Girls Club building off Bridger Drive to Bozeman to create a new base for the city’s recreation division and a community center at the edge of the park. “Now, with construction beginning, we are building a flagship community park.” “We have truly exceptional park designs,” said Mitch Overton, director of Bozeman Parks and Recreation. Landscaping and the last details of the space are scheduled to wrap up in the spring of 2019. The park’s main pieces like its trail system, scattered playgrounds and space for events will go up this year and open by winter. Local contractor Langlas and Associates will lead the construction that will take most of 2018. “There hasn’t been a park like this before in Bozeman,” Pope said. She outlined plans for a natural amphitheater that can seat up to 200 people next to a 40-foot-long climbing wall a path that winds along the East Gallatin River and opens to a 40-acre nature sanctuary a space that can act as grounds for summer festivals or a quiet spot for afternoon walks and a trail through a food forest that leads to a garden. Maddy Pope with the Trust for Public Land walked through a muddy field near where Bozeman Creek splits from the East Gallatin River and described the land’s future. This event does not offer refunds, rollovers, or transfers.Six years after plans began to set aside 60 acres in northeast Bozeman for play and nature, construction started Tuesday on the city’s future Story Mill Community Park.
