Newport Beach’s New Pickleball Courts: The Newport Beach City Council recently finalized the completion of the Newport Coast Pickleball Courts Project, marking the end of a $1.12 million contract with Green Giant Landscape, Inc. The courts, which have been open to the public since May, were nearly finished, with only a few remaining details to be addressed.
Project Details
The initial budget for the project was over $1.08 million when awarded to Green Giant Landscape in October 2023. However, the total cost increased due to the unexpected replacement of a deteriorating wrought iron fence and surrounding sidewalk. Despite these additional expenses, the project now includes eight new pickleball courts along with several amenities.
Added Features and Accessibility
In addition to the courts, the site has been enhanced with a shaded viewing area, benches, trash cans, a bike rack, and two water fountains. These additions make the courts more accessible and enjoyable for players and spectators.
The completion of the project provides the Newport Beach community with a high-quality pickleball facility, contributing to the growing popularity of the sport in the area.
