The City of Pittsburgh Department of Public Works, working with the beneficial input of community partners, is designing park infrastructure upgrades to Manchester Park. The park is located in the neighborhood of Manchester in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania and serves the adjacent neighborhoods of Chateau and California-Kirkbride.

Scope of Work includes the following*:

• Spray Park Implementation
  • Existing pool to be demolished, filled and compacted to accommodate installation of new spray park amenity
• Park Building Upgrades
  • Includes updating the Manchester pool building to include restrooms, house spray park mechanical equipment and additional programming
• Play Area Improvements
  • Relocate and reconfigure existing playground equipment and safety surfacing to integrate with spray park amenity
• Sports Court Renovation
  • Relocate existing courts to accommodate park amenities, as needed. Upgrades should include lighting, player benches and fencing.
  • Evaluate the relevancy of the tennis courts with the consideration of potential upgrades or conversion to alternative programming (i.e. basketball)
• Lighting & Safety Improvements
  • Evaluate condition of existing site lighting and identify needs for proposed lighting per the newly improved park amenities outlined above
• Stormwater Management
  • Stormwater BMP’s should be included to meet the City’s Stormwater Management Code (see General Responsibilities for more information)

*Note: Programming priorities listed above are intended as a general guide and shall be confirmed with the community through the engagement process.
