This park will support a sustainable, vibrant, interactive and green community, along with the revitalization of 107 Avenue. Program elements for the park were developed through public engagement inputs, internal City stakeholders and City policy and guidelines.

  • Gateway feature - to highlight the key park entry from the intersection
  • Casual gathering area - festival/event seating area with stand-up tables, picnic tables and benches
  • Seating - Accessible seating with backs and arms, concrete seating walls, social and community interaction area with durable finishes
