The City of Knoxville Parks and Recreation Department is working on improvements at Skyline Park, 1050 Beaman Lake Road.

Residents have requested upgrades to the playground and to provide better basketball and tennis amenities.

We’re seeking community input. Surveys are being distributed, but you can also share your thoughts by calling 3-1-1 (865-215-4311) or take the online survey.


THE CITY'S GOALS

Provide better visibility of amenities from surrounding properties 
Relocate the playground to the area between the existing tennis courts and baseball fields
Relocate the basketball goals to a portion of the tennis courts
Keep one tennis court

Skyline Park


FULL-COURT OR HALF-COURT BASKETBALL?

WHICH DO YOU PREFER?


OPTION #1 – FULL-COURT BASKETBALL


This option includes installing basketball goals on one side of the tennis courts. Basketball goals would be placed at the short end of the courts, creating one full court and leaving one tennis court.

OPTION #2 –HALF-COURT BASKETBALL


This option also calls for installing basketball goals on one side of the tennis courts. Basketball goals would be placed on the side of the court to allow for two half-court basketball courts. One tennis court would remain.
