The Barb Iverson Skate Park will become the region's premier street skating complex once completed.
The commencement of a year-long construction project to build a 20,000-square-foot skate park was commemorated with a groundbreaking ceremony at Nelson Park in Sioux Falls this week.
Officials from the Sioux Falls Development Foundation, the city of Sioux Falls, and the Let's Skate nonprofit, which advocated for the park, hailed the $2.5 million project as a testament to community collaboration and a commitment to promoting healthy recreation for youth in Sioux Falls.
