"Thank you to the Century Communities team for funding this beautiful tribute to Officer Soldo," Councilwoman Nancy Brune said. "I look forward to opening this new park and seeing children playing and families enjoying being together."
The construction of Igor Soldo Memorial Park is being paid for by Century Communities pursuant to a development agreement with the city of Las Vegas.
"This park ensures Officer Soldo's life and service will be remembered for generations to come," said Century Communities Division President Shane Markuson. "We are grateful to the city of Las Vegas, Skye Canyon, and everyone else who advocated for this park and helped bring it to fruition."
Alyn Beck Memorial Park is located at 9220 Brent Lane and was funded by the Olympia Companies.
Igor Soldo Memorial Park will include a playground, water play area, soccer fields and pickleball courts. It is scheduled to open in early 2027.
