“I’m really looking forward to the day when I’ll let off a couple of threes here at this point,” said Stoney. “We will make this an even better place for our young people, for our adults, for all people, no matter what neighborhood they live in, no matter which side of the river they live.”
Other plans for Broad Rock include an indoor pool and baseball facility, outdoor pavilion and fitness area, and pickleball courts.
