Resident groups in Toronto's St. Clair West/Oakwood neighbourhood are fighting to expand a local park, claiming that the area is suffering from"a severe lack of parkland," and calling it"one of the worst public park deficits in the city."
Locals claim that the park is insufficient for the area it serves, and that a lack of space and amenities have had negative impacts on the community. An expanded park plan designed by architects Brown + Storey aims to make Roseneath a destination for the neighbourhood and beyond, crafted to address the needs and concerns of area residents.
Additions proposed in the concept plan include an off-leash area, a children's playground and other neighbourhood amenities like recreational and health/fitness areas, a waterplay area, shade pergolas, seating, public washrooms, and gardens.
