Ribbon Cutting for Del Prado Linear Park

DATE: February 17, 2023

The City of Cape Coral invites the public to a ribbon cutting ceremony at Del Prado Linear Park Friday, March 3, at 10 a.m.

Parking for the event will be at the newest addition to the park, found at the intersection of Northeast 16th Place & Northeast 12th Terrace.

In 2018, Cape Coral voters approved a $60 million expansion of the City's parks and recreation amenities. The approved 15-year general obligation bond will fund major parks and recreation improvements throughout the City.

Final improvements to Del Prado Linear Park include: 

• Shaded playground featuring:
• Accessible swing seat and traditional swings
• Moon rock climbing component
• Cozy cocoon spinning apparatus
• Fenced basketball court
• Accessible and traditional parking
• Public restrooms
• Improved landscaping and lighting

This new site functions as a trailhead for Del Prado Linear Park, the only linear park in Cape Coral. The park hosts a nearly 4-mile paved and lighted path, which includes eight fitness stations, a loop around Lake Zurich, and a rain garden.
