Birmingham dog park construction to begin soon

Around the last week in September, the Lincoln Hills Golf Course is going to close for the year. Lincoln Hills is a nine-hole course on West Fourteen Mile Road just west of Cranbrook Road. It was built in 1964 and, along with the Springdale course, is one of two municipal courses in Birmingham.

Once Lincoln Hills shuts down for the year, construction will begin on a new dog park as well as a new parking lot for the course. The dog park will be constructed where the Lincoln Hills Education Center currently sits. The education center will be relocated to a new spot on-site. The dog park will be about .85 acres and will be at the southeast edge of Lincoln Hills once it opens later this fall.
