Potenza Park is one of Henderson’s most unique City parks within the nationally recognized Inspirada master-planned community. This award-winning park design embodies movement through its curvilinear layout that flows organically like sound waves from the strategic layout of the play areas and structured spaces. The children’s play area encourages sound creation through play by engaging users with large innovative musical themed play elements. Children can dance on the oversized piano keyboard or activate the controls on the living Neos game. The shaded ramada areas are intertwined with trail paths and native planting, while the tree lined aesthetics of the park creates a landscape that frames the active areas. The programmed areas include basketball courts, large open fields, and the HOA family and lap pool. Potenza Park also incorporates a one-off skate park element that brings out the kid in everyone for those trying to master the art of rail grinding or practicing tricks off the ramps.
