What is Happening?

The City is planning to replace the playground at Margaret Street Park, located at 15 Margaret Street (Ward 15). The park includes open grass areas and a playground.

The existing playground features a swing set, spring toys, a climber and a single slide. 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 fall (2025), 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 Margaret Street Park playground to reflect the needs and wishes of the people who use it most (and for the future use by the community).
