In 2019, Rettler Corporation began working with the City of Stevens Point to develop a master plan for the revitalization of Emerson Park. A community engagement and fundraising campaign led by the Friends of Emerson Park garnered widespread support for the project, and in the fall of 2022, the playground was installed, marking the first phase of construction. The second phase included the construction of a multi-purpose basketball/pickleball court and a concrete cornhole lawn game in 2023. The final phase was completed in 2024 with the addition of ADA on-street parking, and construction of the central pavilion in partnership with Ellis Construction. The park received an award in recognition of innovative and outstanding design from the Wisconsin Park and Recreation Association in 2024.
