Welcome to Great Island
The Great Island
Vision & Master Plan
Nestled along the Long Island Sound, Great Island is a unique treasure now belonging to the Town of Darien. As we embark on the Great Island Vision Plan, we invite you to help shape the future of this 60-acre gem. Your ideas and input are crucial in transforming this newly acquired public open space into a place that reflects the aspirations of our community.
Join us in imagining the possibilities for Great Island!
Great Island Survey #3
As we continue to refine the Great Island Master Plan, we invite you to participate in Survey #3 to help shape the future of this 60-acre gem nestled along Long Island Sound. This survey is designed to gather community insights to shape the future of Great Island, and your responses will help us balance the shared priorities of access and activation, nature and conservation, architecture and historical preservation. Through a series of specific questions relating to these topics, we hope to gain a more robust understanding of key themes discovered from the Vision Plan phase community engagement workshops and surveys.
Our goal is to create a welcoming space that achieves the community's desired recreational opportunities while honoring Great Island's natural beauty and cultural history. Your ideas and input are vital to transforming the island into a public open space that reflects the aspirations of our community. Join us in imagining the possibilities for Great Island!
This survey will take about 10 to 20 minutes. Thank you for your participation!
