This project is complete. We would like to extend a sincere thank you to all members of the community that took part in upgrading this park network. The parks are now open for the community to enjoy.
We are taking a new approach to upgrading or improving neighbourhood parks and playgrounds. This approach looks at clusters of neighbourhood parks that are close to one another and considers them as part of a ‘parks network’. Instead of upgrading one park at a time, we will make changes across the whole network. This way, we can better serve the community by building a variety of features across the greater neighbourhood.
We are upgrading the park network across Centreville Chicopee and Stanley Park neighbourhoods. Kinzie Park, Oaten Park and Idlewood Park are part of this park network. We will also connect the park network upgrades with those happening at Centreville Chicopee Community Centre.
