We’re planning a new park!

Located at 58A Avenue and 142 Street, this park is 1.6 ha (3.9 ac) including portions under the hydro right-of-way across 58A Ave. Located in the South Newton neighbourhood, this area will benefit from a new public green space. Our goal is to create a space where people of all ages and abilities can play, explore, and connect, supported by accessible pathways that link the park to the surrounding community.

Thank you for your input!

The online survey and ideas tool are now closed, a report sharing the input received will be available in the fall of 2025.

Planning Phase

We are in the planning phase for a new neighbourhood park. Based on the city's strategic plans, some active amenities have already been preselected:

  • Multi-Sport Court: According to the City's draft Sport Court Strategy, this neighbourhood is a key location for a multi-sport court. This includes a fenced court with basketball, hockey, and soccer nets to support a range of activities.
  • Playground: Since the nearest park playground is more than 500 meters away, a new playground will be included. Residents will be asked to choose the types of amenities they want in the playground, and the top selections will be featured.
  • Leash-Optional Path: As outlined in the City's draft dog off-leash strategy, this park has been selected for a pilot leash-optional path. The path will be fence-lined but not gated and separated by 58A Ave. This pilot will allow users to provide feedback to the city based on the new style of dog amenity.

In addition to these amenities, we will install smaller-scale additional amenities based on community input.
