Our parks and open spaces in Woodbridge are where neighbors gather to play, unwind and socialize.

2026 Parks Programming Calendar Coming Soon!

WND works collaboratively with residents to create inclusive and fun activities that meet community needs. We believe activating our neighborhood parks and green spaces fosters a sense belonging for our neighbors. We have focused our parks and open spaces work on the following:

  • Planning and overseeing safe summer programs in Scripps Park, including sports/recreation classes, kids’ reading programs, and more!

  • Creating opportunities for resident engagement in Bryant-Vermont Park in coordination with Detroit Bird Alliance

  • Neighborhood vacant lot, street, and/or alley cleanups

  • Neighborhood/home tours and celebration events

Beautification

MOTOR CITY MAKEOVER in Woodbridge has a smash! Neighbors cleaned the freeway service drive, Scripps Park, vacant lots, weeded, cleared sidewalks, and planted flowers and veggies at senior centers and community gardens.

Woodbridge Public Spaces

Scripps Park

This gorgeous city park is at the corner of Trumbull and Grand River in Woodbridge. The beautiful Scripps Park houses a children’s playground, lush perennial beds, a stone shaded reading circle, a rose garden, and a massive climbing tree known to all who’ve been through the park’s historic brick and cast iron fencing. There are picnic tables, benches, charcoal grills, historic lamp posts, a community bulletin board, and even a bicycle pump and tune-up station. The large reinforced green space has welcomed festivals, community concerts, and movie nights with views from a sloping hill.

Bryant-Vermont Park

WND is supporting Detroit Audubon who adopted this city “pocket park” at the corner of Bryant and Vermont— west of Rosa Parks in Woodbridge— to create an "intentional meadow" and bird habitat. WND will continue to work with Detroit Audubon to plan programming that highlights this beautiful sanctuary.
