The goal of Kinistinâw Park is to create a community space for people to gather and to attract further redevelopment to the area.
While work on Kinistinâw Park is now complete and the space is open for Edmontonians to enjoy, testing and final work on the spray park is underway. The spray park is expected to open in summer 2023.
Kinistinâw Park is an under-utilized open space located in the community of Boyle Street. As the centrepiece of The Quarters Downtown, Kinistinâw Park is envisioned as an inviting and safe urban park.
The design of Kinistinâw Park reflects the past, present and future stories of the community, encouraging everyday enjoyment and special opportunities for celebration and gathering. Integrated with the surrounding streets and properties, the park is designed to be a dynamic and well-loved neighbourhood destination that is a source of local pride.
