Kennedy Park Master Plan

Kennedy Park is the flagship facility in the Hayward Area Recreation and Park District’s system, attracting families from all over the east bay area and beyond daily. This destination park boasts 17-acres of old world charm, with attractions including a train ride, carousel, a petting zoo, and the historic McConaghy House.
RRM completed a master plan to give the park an extensive renovation with the goal of improving functionality for park users, providing additional revenue generating opportunities, while preserving the historic character of the site. Highlights of the new design include a bandstand, a festival lawn/community green, two new amusement rides, a rentable party pavilion, and enhanced picnic areas. The park is expected to have its grand re-opening in the first few months of 2022.
