Long Beach, CA ~ On Friday, May 19th, the City of Long Beach celebrated the official opening of Wrigley Greenbelt with a ribbon cutting ceremony. This grant-funded community project provides restoration and preservation of green space in Long Beach's Wrigley Neighborhood along the I-710 freeway.
Mayor Rex Richardson said, "We continue to identify ways to make our parks and open spaces sustainable while also encouraging healthy, active living. The new and improved Wrigley Greenbelt will benefit our community for many years to come."
Located at De Forest Avenue between 26th Way and 34th Street, the Wrigley Greenbelt includes new improvements such as a one-mile walking trail, new picnic tables, and a sustainable design with new landscaping of drought resistant native plants, a new irrigation system, and dry stream beds to improve stormwater runoff. These enhancements will elevate visitor experience and provide the community a place for recreation, exercise and more. New native trees have been planted providing a green buffer to improve air quality while benefiting wildlife and the local ecosystem.

It will offer residents in this neighborhood the opportunity to take in the beautiful sustainable landscape and enjoy the new walking path just in time for summer." He expressed his gratitude towards city, county and state partners for their support in this project.
The Wrigley Greenbelt project is a $3.82 million project with funding support totaling $1.62 million from Los Angeles County Regional Park and Open Space District (LACRPOSD) grant funding; $1 million from Park Impact fees; $1.2 million from Construction & Demolition Recycling Program funds; as well as Cal Fire grants secured by Conservation Corps of Long Beach, the project partner.
