Recreation, Annexation Top News for City of Anderson

Greg Wilson/Anderson Observer

The last quarter of 2024 for the City of Anderson is marked by creation projects, progress on new housing and an improved holiday feature downtown.

The Linley Park Project is well under way, with green space and park amenities that connect the area and eventually the city’s recreation center. It will also provide major upgrades to water and sewer in the area, as well as restoring Whitner Creek as a natural resource.

Cater’s Lake updates are also in the planning stages.

The annual Holiday Ice rink will be all new this season, with real ice replacing the synthetic surface in Carolina Wren Park.

The city’s plan to repave main street downtown is ready, and work is expected in early 2025.

Anderson Mayor Terence Roberts discusses these and other projects, including annexation and new housing for downtown, in this interview with the Anderson Observer.
