Coming soon!

About the Project

The 1st Street Courts is a transformative recreation project underway in Downtown Keosauqua. Located on the former Peacock Park Softball Field, this park will breathe new life into the area by offering a dynamic, multi-sport recreational space designed to serve residents and attract visitors of all ages. The courts will be free to use at any time by anyone, making it an accessible and welcoming place for all. This project isn’t just about courts—it’s about community. It’s about reclaiming underutilized land and turning it into something that brings people together, supports youth and families, and enhances everyday life in Keosauqua.

What to Expect

When complete, the 1st Street Courts will include:

  • 2 Tennis Courts

  • 2 Pickleball Courts

  • 1 Full-Size Basketball Court

  • 2 Bocce Ball Courts

  • Shaded seating areas with picnic tables and benches
