🛹 Stewart Heights Skatepark Reopens After Major Renovation

Stewart Heights Skatepark is officially open again.

Construction has wrapped up after several months of upgrades, and the park is now ready for action. The newly rebuilt facility brings a welcome refresh to a popular community space that’s served local youth and families for years.

🔧 What’s New?
The skatepark has been completely renovated, with smooth new concrete, updated ramps and rails, and more modern design features that match the style of today’s skaters and riders.

While it’s not a full redesign from scratch, the rebuild brings the park up to the standards of other top-tier skateparks in the region.

The updates include:

• New skate features and smoother transitions

• Improved layout for both beginners and advanced riders

• More inclusive design for skaters, scooters, and BMX riders

• Fresh paint and improved drainage

The entire area has been cleaned up, leveled out, and reimagined to encourage safer, more dynamic riding sessions.

📍 Location
Stewart Heights Park
5715 Reginald Gutierrez Ln
Tacoma, WA 98404

Located just east of Pacific Avenue, the park is part of a broader community corridor that includes Stewart Heights Pool, ballfields, and green space.

🌆 Why It Matters
This is more than just a skatepark refresh, it’s another important win for the Eastside of Tacoma, where investments in community spaces have historically lagged behind other neighborhoods.

The Stewart Heights area has been seeing steady improvements, from road and infrastructure work to community programming and park upgrades. Projects like this one not only provide better amenities for youth and families — they’re also symbolic of ongoing revitalization efforts throughout the corridor.

For young people especially, this is a safe, free, and creative outlet — and it’s already drawing crowds since reopening.

🕒 Open Daily During Park Hours

No reservations needed — just bring your board, scooter, or bike and enjoy the space.
