Mountains Edge Park

Overview

Mountain’s Edge Regional Park Phase I is a 17-acre park located in the southwest Mountain’s Edge community in Las Vegas, Nevada. LGA was part of a design build team tasked to provide design innovation to the bridging documents provided by Clark County, Nevada.

The park embodies the theme of health and wellness within the activities provided. The overarching goal was to provide a park for ages toddler through adult, with varied levels of passive to active participation. Activities include open fields for self-organized sports, and a sports wall area with 12 different sports integrated into the design, including: football, basketball, baseball, soccer, hockey, field hockey, tennis, handball, racquetball, cricket, lacrosse and Mayan Circle.

The park includes an iconic entry gateway climber, a children’s play area with equipment designed to combine play and digital games, an outdoor gym, a toddler bike town, a meditation garden, a grass-sloped amphitheater and a two-acre trail. The site includes large shaded group picnic structures and small shade structures for individual use.

The design team developed a smart phone application to encourage visitor engagement and repeat visitation. QR codes were used on site signage to access information on how to use gym and play equipment, to track individual health and wellness, and to supply information on park events and scheduling.
