Beachwood City Park
Open
to all is Beachwood City Park, a passive recreation area
located on the east and west ends of the Shaker Boulevard median.
Beachwood City Park West
includes 1.6 miles of trails, consisting of 8-foot wide hard
surface multi-purpose trails allowing for bicycling, walking,
running and skating; 6-foot wide gravel trails for hiking;
a sledding hill; two parking areas with 18 parking spaces
each and an open-air shelter with room for 40 to 50 people,
including a unisex bathroom and a drinking
fountain.
A wood staircase provides access from the upper level near
the 70-foot slope sledding hill to the lower central area
of the park, adjacent to the gravel trails.
Wood boardwalks
cross wet areas along the trail, and pedestrian entry points
into the park are located at Richmond Road with new minor
entry points across from Sulgrave Road on both East and
West Shaker Boulevard.
Crosswalks are located at the minor
entry points. Landscaping focuses on screening new parking
areas from surrounding neighborhoods and beautifying the
park entry areas at Richmond Road.
Beachwood City Park East features 1 mile of paved trails,
benches and a parking area located on Shaker Blvd (east
