The new Dean Park is well on its way to completion, with the fields and courts on track to open in March 2025 following a years-long planning and renovation process.
The new park is part of the new Jennie Dean Elementary School, which will be replacing the existing Jennie Dean building on the same lot in Manassas. Designs for the new building were approved in February, and there were disagreements between City Council and the Manassas City Public School Board about the future of the existing building in the spring.
