A new universal-access playground was 

unveiled at Ann Arbor’s Gallup Park this 
weekend. Named the Rotary Centennial 
Playground, the space is open and accessible to 
all people, regardless of age or ability.

The project, which has been in the works 

since 2013, is a $1.1 million addition to Gallup 
Park. The Rotary Club of Ann Arbor donated 
$550,000 to make the playground a reality. 
Collyer Smith, president of the organization, 
told MLive that the playground aims to bring 
people together in its accessibility.

“It is for people of all abilities and all ages,” 

Collyer said. “It’s not just for kids. It’s not just 
for disabled people. It’s not just for disabled 
kids. It is for people of all abilities and all ages 
to play together.”

Colin Smith, director of the Ann Arbor 

Parks and Recreation Services, echoed the 
Rotary Club’s sentiments.

“It’s for the child and for the caregiver 

too, or the parent, so everyone can be involved 
in every aspect of it,” Colin said. “I hope it 
continues to be a place where people can come 
together and enjoy together and to grow and 
play.”

According to ClickOn Detroit, more 

than 100 people attended Sunday’s ribbon-
cutting ceremony, where Ann Arbor Mayor 
Christopher Taylor gave a statement.

“Ann Arbor is beautiful because of who we 

are and what we do,” Taylor told the crowd.

The playground is centered around a fairy 

theme, with different play structures to make 
players feel as if they’re in woodlands, rivers or 
prairies. The structures encourage cooperative 
play and are handicap-
accessible.

The city said it was 

thrilled with the way the 
playground turned out. Ann 
Arbor Parks and Recreation 
Services tweeted a photo 
of the ribbon-cutting 
ceremony, writing, “We 
could not have asked for a 
better outcome from this 
collaboration.”

Although this 

playground is already a great 
success, Hillary Hanzel, 
one of the project heads and 
landscape architects, told 
ClickOn Detroit there won’t 

be any others like it in Ann Arbor any time 
soon.

“(No other plans) for a playground of this 

size, scope and cost — this one is unique!” 
Hanzel said. “As we make improvements 
to other Ann Arbor Park playgrounds the 
principle of universal accessibility is certainly 
considered and a goal we strive for.”

and just overall a more pleasant 
experience.”

Although the project was 

finished this weekend, DDA 
project manager Liz Rolla said 
there are a few final additions 
that still need to happen. 
Maintenance will also occur 
regularly to keep the area 
looking nice.

“We’re still going to come 

back sometime this fall and 
update the lighting, so put 
basically new lamps in the 
existing ground holes,” Rolla 
said. “And there’s some upkeep 
with the landscaping, so every 
now and then you’ll see people 
watering, weeding, stuff like 
that.”

Rolla said there should be no 

need to close the roads again 
while this upkeep is going on, 
though street parking may be 
blocked off for short periods of 
time.

New high-rise apartments 

are also slated to be built in 
the South University Avenue 

area. The lot at 1107 South 
University Ave. will house the 
Collegian North building when 
completed. Brett Lenart, Ann 
Arbor’s 
planning 
manager, 

wrote in an email interview 
that proposals for 1209 and 
1215 South University Ave. were 
submitted last year, but neither 
has received approval from the 
city yet.

“For 1107 (South) University, 

I would anticipate about 2 years 
of construction once it starts,” 
Lenart wrote. “The others will 
depend on the owners time to 
submit and revise plans, receive 
necessary 
approvals, 
and 

commence construction.” 

Lenart is optimistic about 

the impact these new buildings 
could have on the University 
of Michigan community. He 
thinks these new buildings 
will draw new commerce to the 
area.

“I 
think 
that 
adding 

student-oriented 
residential 

is a great opportunity for this 
area, 
allowing 
students 
to 

live practically on campus, 
potentially without need for a 
vehicle,” he wrote. “I think it 
will be interesting to see how 

the retail in the area evolves 
with the addition of more 
residential units in that area. 
Adding units, or “rooftops” in 
market analysis speak, typically 
increases 
the 
viability 
of 

commercial uses.”

According to the building 

plan for the Collegian North, 
the ground floor of the building 
will be dedicated to retail space.

Councilwoman 
Julie 

Grand, D-Ward 3, has heard 
some 
concern 
from 
her 

residents about the way the 
new 
projects 
are 
changing 

the character of the district. 
She said her residents are 
nevertheless mostly unaffected 
by the construction and new 
development.

“There are certainly some 

residents who don’t like them 
from an aesthetic point of view, 
but because of how they impact 
their daily life because they 
are so close to campus, it’s not 
much of a concern,” Grand said. 
“If there’s any concern, it’s over 
the character of the district ... 
not over the quality of life.”

Still, the opinions of Grand’s 

residents will be something 
the city must deal with in 

the coming years as more 
development occurs.

Students, on the other 

hand, are divided as to 
whether 
they 
think 
the 

changes on South University 
Avenue are beneficial. Many 
were outraged when they 
first heard of plans to build 
more high-rise apartments 
in the area. Public Policy 
senior, CSG Vice President, 
Nadine Jawad has spent her 
years in student government 
advocating 
for 
affordable 

student 
housing. 
In 
an 

interview with the Daily 
last spring Jawad said it 
comes down to an issue of 
equity and that she plans to 
use her position in student 
government to ensure Ann 
Arbor 
is 
accessible 
and 

affordable for all. Others, like 
Junkin, are ambivalent to the 
change.

“It doesn’t bother me,” 

Junkin said. “I don’t know if 
I would notice a difference, 
but it would be interesting. 
It would be nice, I guess, to 
have more places to eat and 
stuff.”
