Sawgrass Sanctuary Park is an environmental interpretive passive park constructed on a 21-acre parcel located at the Southwest corner of Interstate 75 and State Road 84 within the City of Sunrise. This exciting park was completed in early 2001 and includes a number of innovative and educational experiences designed towards the adjacent elementary school students. This park includes the creation of an enormous wetland as well as picnic pavilions, interpretive stations, animal footprint teaching pads, boardwalk with porthole viewing terminals, an observation platform, fishing pier, canoe trails and even a concert platform. Craven Thompson and Associates, Inc. and its subconsultant, Jeff Falkanger and Associates, were responsible for the survey, design and permitting of all aspects of this unique park for the City of Sunrise.
