Paris Makes a Splash

TLM partnered with Superior Recreational Products, Nihm construction, Water Odyssey, the City of Paris, and Great Southern, to design and construct a new splashpad at Eiffel Tower Park in Paris, TN. The new splash pad features approximately 12,000 square feet of play area with specific zones for family, teen, and youth (ages 2-5) all including aquatic play equipment with spray cannons and ground spray. The new attraction also features a 40-foot tidal tank. The park currently has a replica of the Eiffel Tower which has been a stable attraction to the city for decades. This project is an added destination feature for the area as it also sits adjacent to the existing city pool. The new splashpad is now the largest non-amusement park splashpad in the state.

“The Eiffel Tower replica, adjacent to the new
splash pad is already a huge draw for the city of Paris. It is with hopes that this new addition to the park will keep visitors in the area longer to bring more revenue to the city. Splash pads are more user-friendly and can stay open longer than pools allowing for more visitors to the park during warmer months.”
