News Flash • Southampton Town Issues Survey on Red Creek Ska

Approximately twenty local skaters came out for a meeting held at Red Creek Park in Hampton Bays this past Wednesday to get the first glimpse at plans for a major renovation of the skate park at the facility.  Engineering firm L.K. McLean Associates and Platform Group, a firm that specializes in the design of one-of-a-kind custom skate parks, presented two conceptual designs. Both options featured concrete surfaces but had variations on elements like bowl shapes, street course layouts, and types of obstacles.

“The participants at the meeting were very enthusiastic about the designs, and provided some great ideas and feedback,” said Councilman Rick Martel. “We also hope that anyone else who is interested will take the survey so we can hone in on as many wants and needs as possible.”

Conceptual designs for the skate park and a brief survey can be found at www.southamptontownny.gov/survey.  The deadline for survey submissions will be Wednesday, October 15.  

The project is being funded by the Southampton Town Board’s appropriation of $1.25 million in the 2025 capital budget, and is being managed by the Parks & Recreation Department. The construction of the new park is anticipated to be completed by fall of 2026.
