Cherie Buckner-Webb Park is the City of Boise’s newest downtown urban park in the Westside Urban Renewal District. It replaced a private surface parking lot with a destination community space open to everyone. Wright Brothers focused on the reconstruction of the parking lot improvements during the first phase while also installing streetscape utilities and Silva cells for the new street trees. The next phase included installing the underground utilities and rough grading for the park. Crews then poured the concrete sidewalks around the perimeter of the park and poured the remaining concrete features within the plaza dining area. Art installation, installation of furnishings and landscaping came last. The park was completed in July 2021 and a formal dedication and grand opening took place on August 5, 2021.
