Clive’s New Park Unveiled | Des Moines News

Clive’s biggest park yet, Greenbelt Landing, is set to open next week during the Clive Festival — a $10.5 million environmental and recreational masterpiece built over nearly a decade. Featuring a playground, performance stage, public art, fishing access, and trail connections to the ICON Water Trails, it’s designed for all-day fun. But it’s more than just swings and slides — the park includes a restored wetland that naturally filters stormwater to combat flooding in Walnut Creek, with a boardwalk offering eco-tours. It’s part of Clive’s larger park revitalization push, with Linnan Park reopening in August and the Greenbelt Trail under I-235 finished by month’s end. The festival on July 17-18 will be packed with food trucks, live music, fireworks, and even the city’s legendary fire department waterslide — a celebration of community, nature, and big-city progress.
