We’re renewing Bishop’s Park

Bishop’s Park is located at 91 East Ave S in Hamilton, Ward 3. The park is approximately 890m2 in size and sits at the corner of East Ave S and Hunter Street E within the Stinson Neighbourhood.

Bishop's Park is a green space featuring several large canopy trees that provide ample shade for the bench seating areas and asphalt pathway that connects East Ave S and Hunter Street E. The existing park features are nearing the end of their lifecycle and require replacement.

Upgrades to the Bishop’s Park will include:

  • New asphalt pathway
  • Upgraded bench seating
  • Installation of a drinking fountain
  • Entrance feature planting
  • Replacement of ornamental metal fence
  • Light fixture relocation
Along with the proposed upgrades, the introduction of additional features will be installed based on previous community consultation, existing site analysis, and the following survey.

What we are looking to learn

We invite community to share ideas regarding the renewal of Bishop’s Park, including:

  • Use of open spaces (e.g. gathering spaces, community garden)
  • Drinking fountain design
  • Preferred bench style

How to get involved

We want to hear from you! Share your preferences through the online survey. If you have any questions, please reach out to us directly. After gathering community input, we’ll review the feedback and share how it helped shape the final park renewal designs.
