Clement Park
Clement Park

Robert F. Clement Park is home to many organized special events throughout the year, including the Summerset Festival each September. It is one of Littleton’s most popular public parks, covering over 200 acres. Clement Park features a mix of athletic fields, picnic shelters, a splash park, open play areas, and trails. This park’s project included an in-depth planning scope, permitted by Jefferson County. EVstudio had an extensive design role for this project. Designs included the renovated athletic fields (including energy efficient lighting), new splash pads for the splash park, a concessions pavilion, and pool house. Stand-out designs for this project were the athletic shelter, the new inclusive playground, and the bathroom building. Clement Park experiences a high volume of traffic year-round, especially from youth in the community. The main playground was made accessible for children of all abilities to play. The splash park was designed to include wind sensors to be water-efficient in response to weather, as well as continually recycling and treating the water used.
