Citadel Park Improvements
The update to Citadel Park will include some renovations, some additions, and some improvements. We are still working with our design consultant to come up with a more complete design that meets the city’s needs and will update those changes and recommendations as we move forward.
Residents can continue to follow this process by following on the website, social media, or through our monthly city council meetings for updates and comments.
This will be the first park update in our ongoing Parks Improvements Efforts throughout the City.
Entryway Signage
New signage will soon be constructed to better define the gateways into the City of Forest Acres. The first brick entryway sign will be constructed at Lexington Health of Forest Drive.
Lexington Health has been a wonderful partner with the City of Forest Acres since opening its medical offices in the City in 2024. Since opening their doors, Lexington Health was the headline sponsor for Sweet Seasons in 2024 and 2025. They also sponsored the city's Picnic in the Park series at Gills Creek Memorial Park and brought the Lexington Medical Center's Heart and Sole Women's Five Miler to Forest Acres in 2025.
Intersection Improvements
City Council is also currently considering concepts for intersection improvements, in addition to recently added smart signals, that will calm traffic and improve pedestrian safety along Forest Drive. These designs will also enhance streetscapes and entry-ways.
