Westside Big Idea*<br />
Infrastructure Project<br />
Westmoreland Park<br />
#3<br />
The Westmoreland School was created in late 1800 as African American public school to served children in the<br />
neighborhood. After it closed, it was repurposed as CIC Head Start and the surrounding land served as a public<br />
space. This large swath <strong>of</strong> green space, which sits in the heart <strong>of</strong> the community, could increase opportunities <strong>for</strong><br />
safe recreation, arts, events, social connections, and daily community life. The park planning phase happened in<br />
2017, and implementation <strong>of</strong> those plans could reactivate the space <strong>for</strong> Danville residents, especially those who<br />
live in Westside.<br />
*<br />
Big Ideas are intended to spark discussion and create excitement about potential within the <strong>Opportunity</strong><br />
<strong>Neighborhoods</strong>. These projects and programs are aspirational, with some further along than others. The hope is<br />
that they can help residents reimagine their spaces, consider sustainable ways to advance neighborhood goals,<br />
and inspire tangible ways to focus energies and bring Big Ideas to life.<br />
