The new stairs into the glen where the Goranson Bandshell is located in Allen Park
Officials cut the ribbon Tuesday on the newly constructed steps that lead down to the Allen Park Bandshell.
Jamestown Parks Manager Dan Stone said he was approached by the Allen Park Women’s Club in January 2024 about using some money the organization had collected to the build the stairs, “I couldn’t think of a better project to try to take on. So at that point, I had reached out to the Chautauqua Region Community Foundation and the Mayor’s office and everybody had the same sentiment. Sounds like a great project to take on. So here we are today, thanks to our engineer designing it, Len Marucci; Ryan Patti and his crew for putting in the fantastic stairs for us, and adding the railing is another safety feature to go with it.”
Engineer Len Marucci said once the candlestick-style light poles are installed next to the steps, the total cost of the project will have totaled $121,000.
