Help shape a vision for the new park in an interactive thought exchange activity. The activity closes on April 29, 2026.

A new 3,725 m² park—just slightly smaller than a junior soccer field—is coming to the northeast corner of the Bayview Village Shopping Centre as part of its mixed‑use redevelopment. The design of this new park will be shaped through community engagement to ensure it reflects the needs of the Bayview Village neighbourhood.

  • Spring 2026: Hire a design team and Community Engagement Phase 1
  • Fall 2026: Community Engagement Phase 2
  • Winter 2027: Community Engagement Phase 3 and detailed design
  • Spring 2027: Hire a construction team
  • Fall 2027: Construction starts
  • 2028: Construction complete, park opens

    The timeline is subject to change.

    Level of Engagement

    This project has been classified as an Involve project based on the International Association for Public Participation’s Spectrum. This means we engage with the public throughout the design process for the new park, including the development of a vision, the exploration of design options and the refinement of a preferred design.

    In this phase, the project team will work with the community to understand their needs and priorities and define a vision statement, guiding principles and big moves for the new park. These will guide the development of design options in Community Engagement Phase 2.

    The community engagement activities anticipated in this phase include:

    • an interactive thought exchange activity
    • a community design workshop

    In this phase, the project team will work off the outcomes of Community Engagement Phase 1 to develop design options for the new park. These will be shared with the community for feedback, which will help shape the preferred design.

    The community engagement activities anticipated in this phase include:

    • an online survey
    • in-person pop-up events

    In this phase, the project team will share the preferred design with the community and gather feedback to inform refinements. The project will then move into the detailed design phase, where the design team will work through the technical details and plans for the construction contractor.

    The community engagement activities anticipated in this phase include:

    • an online survey
    • in-person pop-up events
