About Renaissance Park in Meridian
Renaissance Park is a 6.5-acre neighborhood park located in south Meridian, Idaho, within the Tuscany subdivision. Established in 2008, the park offers a blend of recreational facilities and open spaces for community use.
The park features a large free-standing sculpture called "Illuminations" by local artist Ken McCall, celebrating the significant musical, scientific, literary, and artistic contributions made during the Renaissance period. This artwork aligns with the Italian theme of the surrounding Tuscany subdivision.
Renaissance Park provides various amenities for visitors, including sports facilities, play areas, and spaces for relaxation. The park's design incorporates both active and passive recreation options, catering to diverse community needs.
One of the park's notable features is its reservable picnic shelter, which can accommodate up to 30 people and includes access to power and a free charcoal grill. However, due to staffing limitations, the shelter is only available for reservations from Monday through Thursday, with Friday through Sunday operating on a first-come, first-served basis.
The park also includes a reservable multi-use athletic field, expanding its utility for organized sports and community events. With its combination of recreational facilities and open spaces, Renaissance Park serves as a valuable community asset for residents of Meridian's Tuscany subdivision and surrounding areas.
