Two Creeks Open Space
The only facilities currently constructed in the Two
Creeks Open Space are in and around Flagg Park. Please see the
Management Plan for this open space for the plans for future
recreation facilities.
 Flagg
Park is owned by the City of Lafayette and leased to
Boulder County.
The five-acre property is located off of Flagg Drive and contains a section
of Coal Creek. History
The site, a former landfill, was
developed into a community park in 1979 with the help of grants from the
Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) and the Land and Water
Conservation Fund (LWCF). The Flagg Park Property was deeded to the City in 1964 by the Hurst
Family. In November 1977, the County Commissioners entered into a lease
agreement with the City and planned to develop the site as a natural
park.
Flagg Park offers public parking and several benches and picnic
tables for relaxation and wildlife viewing.
Access to the property is from the park entrance off of Flagg Drive,
east of 120th Street and south of Baseline Road. Head east on Baseline
Road. Turn south on Flagg Drive. Turn east into the parking lot for Flagg Park. The property address is 12400 Flagg Drive in Lafayette. Dogs
are permitted but must be leashed at all times.
