Canton Breaks Ground on Harmon Park Renovations City leaders, local officials, representatives from recreation partners Cherokee Impact Soccer and Canton Dizzy Dean, and community members broke ground September 2 to kick off the renovation to Harmon Park. The $4.3M project is slated to take approximately one year to complete. “The groundbreaking celebration of our renovation and additions to Harmon Park marks a significant milestone in Canton’s efforts to revitalize the historic Sunnyside community and fulfills several of the primary goals of our Roadmap for Success,” Mayor Bill Grant said. “As one of our oldest city parks, Harmon has not been updated or brought up to the standards of excellence of our newer green spaces. Our significant investment in a complete renovation to the park indicates our long-term commitment to elevating the quality of life for every resident in our great city.”Renovations will include a new mini-pitch soccer field, pavilion, resurfaced basketball court, new batting cages, baseball field upgrades, connecting sidewalks, a continuous park drive, and additional parking. Long-term goals and future additions to the park will include public art installations by the Canton Cultural Arts Commission, riverside landscaping, and a bridge crossing and trail connection to Boling, Heritage, and Etowah River Parks.
