COMMUNITY VISION (Project 4):<br />

Provide an inviting network <strong>of</strong> parks, public<br />

spaces and sports complexes to draw tourists to<br />

the area and to improve the quality <strong>of</strong> life for<br />

<strong>Pascagoula</strong> residents.<br />

IG Levy Sports Complex:<br />

The existing IG Levy Park is currently easily accessible from Highway<br />

90 <strong>of</strong>f <strong>of</strong> Chicot Street. The park already contains a variety <strong>of</strong><br />

<strong>of</strong>ferings, and the addition <strong>of</strong> a sports complex will enhance the<br />

<strong>City</strong>’s availability <strong>of</strong> quality recreational venues. It is one <strong>of</strong> two<br />

locations being considered for such a sportsplex addition.<br />

PROJECT FRAMEWORK:<br />

A strong network <strong>of</strong> parks along the Highway 90 corridor will provide<br />

direct access to a combination <strong>of</strong> nature, meeting space, fitness<br />

opportunities, sports venues, and child‐friendly playgrounds.<br />

Property to the north <strong>of</strong> the existing IG Levy Park is ideally suited for<br />

a sports complex, to include youth baseball and s<strong>of</strong>tball fields along<br />

with adult s<strong>of</strong>tball fields, concession areas, and other amenities.<br />

Combined with existing racquetball, tennis, skate park, disc golf,<br />

soccer fields and trails, this will make the athletic focus <strong>of</strong> this park<br />

much stronger.<br />
