Construction on The Hills project is continuing at a rapid pace. In January we showcased Grassy Hill’s rise to the top, but today we present to you Slide Hill!

With four slides of various heights along its slope, Slide Hill will be a center for activity and play. The longest slide, for the thrill seeking visitor, will be 48 feet long! There will also be wider and shorter slides for families and young children. Slide Hill will offer an exciting complement to the tranquility of the adjacent Grassy Hill and Discovery Hill. For now though, the bulldozers are hard at work [caption id=”” align=“aligncenter” width=“300”] Rendering of Slide Hill. Image courtesy of West 8.[/caption]
