Sport fields (9-12 acres)
The reuse of the PCG site for active recreation was one of the two most frequently supported and preferred redevelopment options. These results, along with an analysis of current Village parks and recreational facilities, points to the need for field sport facilities. The most common field sports mentioned by Gowanda area residents include soccer and softball, neither of which can be accommodated at existing facilities in the Village today. A preliminary assessment by a consultant to the U.S. Soccer Foundation indicates that the site may be appropriate for soccer fields. Each field would take 2-3 acres. Similarly, softball fields could also take 2-3 acres each dependent on some of the supporting facilities and parking required.
