Alexander Park
Alexander Park & Firefighters Splash PadHistory in the Making
It started with a group of people who shared a vision. Cold Spring was already a destination city, but one thing was missing: a splash pad; a place for kids to enjoy healthy outdoor play and for families and friends to connect in a park with something fun for everyone.The mission of the Cold Spring Splash Pad Committee is to bring this dream to life. So let's make history!
Why this location for a park and splash pad?
The legacy of this piece of land begins in 1898 when the Alexander family started Rockville Granite Company. In the 1920's the company moved to Cold Spring and changed the name to Cold Spring Granite. In 2008, Cold Spring Granite moved their operations and vacated this property. The City of Cold Spring purchased it and plans are underway to build Alexander Park in this location. In August of 2020 Alexander Park and the Firefighters Splash Pad was opened. We want to thank the community and local businesses for their support in bringing this project to life. The Grand Opening was held June 4, 2021.
