Dozens of kids, families and community members were the first to try out the new inclusive park Wednesday afternoon on La Crosse s South Side, a long awaited project that brings people of all backgrounds together to play.
The All Abilities Trane Park officially opened its gates with a ribbon cutting ceremony, and despite the 80-degree weather, park-goers were excited to try the new space which was designed to be accessible for people of all ages, abilities and backgrounds.
Located at the corner of 15th and Chase streets where the former Trane Park sat, the $6 million project was nearly a decade in the making.
