Esperanza Park, Cathedral City

In 2020, Verde Design undertook the conceptual planning for a 7.5-acre community park situated along the seasonal Whitewater River in Cathedral City. This park is designed to integrate trail connections with the region’s master-planned CV Link trail, which serves as an alternative transportation route for the Coachella Valley. The proposed design encompasses a variety of features, including a multi-use natural grass open space, a futsal court, a central plaza, restroom facilities, two covered play areas, fitness stations, two basketball courts, a dog park, picnic shelters, picnic tables, walkways, benches, and two designated parking areas. The City then engaged our firm to leverage our expertise in order to successfully finalize this project, specifically tasking us with the development of the construction drawings. With these drawings finalized, the park is underwent construction, and recently had its grand opening in Spring of 2025.
