Project Overview

The City of Edmonton has developed two new school park sites located in the Keswick area in south Edmonton. Keswick East, located on the eastern boundary of the neighbourhood, will include a Catholic elementary/ junior high school and Keswick West, located in a central area of the neighbourhood, will include a public elementary/junior high School. At each site, the City has completed base-level development and allocated space for future shared level development amenities per the Urban Parks Management Plan (UPMP).

Base-level development of the parks include site grading, grass, tree planting and focus on sports field development for baseball/softball and soccer fields for a variety of younger age groups. 

The design of each park site also provides a placeholder for future shared community amenity development of playgrounds or similar amenities.

Construction started in summer 2021 and was completed ahead of schedule in summer 2022 to coincide with the opening of the schools.
