The community worked to make it a park with some picnic tables and grills. The latest addition to the park included new playground equipment.

As their sign states, the park is becoming a reality:
Park in Tamarack City

It is amazing what Tamarack City was able to accomplish. They were able to raise enough for that playground equipment (which is not cheap!). The Daily Mining Gazette has a full article on the park and how they raised the funds.

I think the park is a great addition to the Copper Country. To me, the park sitting next to a huge piece of history is an interesting display of old vs. new. I wonder now if the stamp mill ruins will be demolished. I hope not.
