Construction Begins for the “Heart of the Park”
The next phase of construction will begin at the Great Park next week. Excavation and grading work will encompass approximately 210 acres in the area between Cadence and Great Park Boulevard.
According to City staff, construction work should not impact Great Park neighborhoods, motorists, or the use of the Great Park sports fields.
The amenities being built in the area referred to as the “Heart of the Park” will include: an Amphitheater; the Full Circle Farm (a fully operational farm to grow fresh produce for local food banks and host farm-to-table events); the Great Meadow (a large open green space); two lakes; and the Grand Promenade (a 2-mile pedestrian walkway through the park between Cadence and the Irvine Train Station).
Another exciting addition coming to the Great Park is a new retail center that will open in 2026.
