MURFREESBORO, TENN. - Planning the layout of a new park along Veterans Parkway in Murfreesboro is underway now... That was Murfreesboro Parks and Rec Director Nate Williams.

It was previously announced that the city had earmarked $8-million for a variety of park elements within the acreage... Williams hopes to eventually connect the Greenway system to the future Veterans Park...

As noted from the very beginning, the Murfreesboro City Schools will have the option to utilize a portion of the land to put a new school on. Reports also indicate a satellite police precinct will be built on the property. One resident said that her neighbors car was recently broken into, which some residents say is needed... A timeline as to when the park will be built and and ready to open has not officially been announced.
