MAYWOOD RIVERFRONT PARK

The City of Maywood is developing seven parcels into the Maywood Riverfront Park. Mountains Recreation and Conservation Authority (MRCA) assisted the City with the acquisition and development of the Catellus site. Trust for Public Land (TPL) is currently assisting the City with property acquisition and recently transferred the W.W. Henry property. The remaining properties are either undergoing remediation, environmental review, or negotiations for acquisition. The City has received funding through the County 1996 Proposition A funds, the Caltrans' Environmental Enhancement Mitigation Program, and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency through the Gateways Cities Council of Governments.

The City of Maywood is the most densely populated city in California. There are only two parks in the City that together make up 5.8 acres. The creation of this Maywood Riverfront Park will more than double the park area.
