Missoula's Silver Park / On the horizon: Proposal adds riverfront park - City Club Missoula Luncheon on 2/15

February 8, 2008

The history of timber in Montana is one theme of a new city park that will come together along the Clark Fork River.

Silver Park is slated to be a 14.5-acre stretch of greenery, art, trails and timber frame shelters in a district called the Old Sawmill District, at the old Champion Mill site.

At an upcoming City Club Missoula meeting, city leaders and a member of the Timber Framers Guild will present plans for the park and the shelters, which will cover benches. City Club hosts the informational lunch forum on Friday, Feb. 15, at the DoubleTree Edgewater.
