GBA's Impact on Community Recreation

Project Overview

In alignment with the City’s priorities to provide quality recreational opportunities and support an active community, Wilder Bluff, a 40-acre park near 55^th Street and Belmont Drive, was planned as a capital improvement project.

The project, funded by the Parks, Pipes and Pavement Sales Tax, began in 2019 and was completed in 2020.

The Monticello Historical Society named it for the nearby Wilder Township. Public engagement included open house meetings and working closely with nearby Riverview Elementary students during the conceptual design phase.

As part of the Confluence team, GBA performed site investigations, civil engineering design, and environmental and land surveying services.
