Park Map

Currently, portions of Dix Park, including some areas where programs and events occur, have uneven surfaces and are not fully accessible. Accessibility is a primary focus for all park improvements and development.

Parking: ADA parking spaces for the Stone Houses are located behind the buildings off Tate Dr. 

Restrooms: Accessible restrooms are available at the Superintendents House public restroom facility seven days a week from 8 am - 8 pm

Building Entrances: Ramps are located at the rear of the buildings.

Multiuse Path: The connection from the Rocky Branch Greenway to Umstead Dr. in front of the Stone Houses is fully accessible. 

Programs and Events: Raleigh Parks Inclusion Services works with community members to support participation. To request a program modification based on the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), please complete and submit the Accommodation Request Form or contact Inclusion Services staff at 919-996-2147 or ParksInclusion@raleighnc.gov.
