Virginia Hylton Park in Lexington is undergoing renovations that some say are long overdue. The project will more than double the size of it from six and a half acres to nearly 15 acres.
The town's oldest greenspace will be getting new pavilions, an all-inclusive playground, a small amphitheater and an area for teens.
Officials say it's been nearly three decades since the park has had any work done and it's time for a facelift. Officials say they aren't sure when the project will be complete, but construction will take place in bits and pieces.
