Play Your Way - Carpenter Park Playground Replacement
What is Happening?
The City is planning to replace the playground at Carpenter Park, located at 145 Eagleglen Way (Ward 14) in Hamilton’s Carpenter neighbourhood. The park includes a multi-use court, walking paths, shade shelter, fitness stations, open grass areas and a playground.
The existing playground features junior and senior play structures, climbers and swings. It has provided families and neighbours with a place to play, connect, and enjoy the outdoors. Now it's time to reimagine the space to meet new needs of the community.
Why This Matters
Local parks and playgrounds are an important part of every neighbourhood. They support healthy, active living, create spaces for connection, and help build a sense of community. When residents help shape these spaces, the result is a park that reflects the people who use it, one that is more welcoming, inclusive, and well used.
How to Get Involved
This summer (2026), we’ll be launching an online survey to hear from you. We want to know what kinds of playground features you would like to see in the new design.
Everyone is welcome to take part, children, youth, parents, grandparents, caregivers, and anyone who uses the park.
How We Will Use Your Input
Your feedback will help shape the design of the new playground. The ideas and suggestions you share will be reviewed and used to guide the final design plans.
What We Are Looking to Learn
We want to learn:
- What play equipment or features are most important to you
- What makes a great playground for your family or community
- Any ideas or themes you’d like to see included
Your ideas are key to this project, we want the new Carpenter Park playground to reflect the needs and wishes of the people who use it most (and for the future use by the community).

The survey provided images of various playground components, which were grouped into their respective categories, allowing respondents to select their top choices for each. Additionally, written responses were received, which contained feedback and information regarding the demographics of survey respondents. These written responses will be considered in both the Carpenter Park playground design, and for the continuous improvement of our playground replacement projects throughout the City.
