Goebel Park in Mainstrasse Village in Covington, Kentucky has a list of improvements in the works:

• Trail will be created to connect the park to the new riverfront and bike trails in Latonia, Kentucky
• Play structures (that will also be interactive art pieces) will be designed
• German folk art pieces will be added in Fall 2014
• Large checkerboard will be painted on a floor to be used for large checker or chess games

The park is located between Fifth and Ninth streets. It has a public pool open to residents with passes. Picnic shelters, a gazebo, playground and grill are also available. The current walking trail connects the park to Kenny Shields Park.
