Alex Decoteau Park - 105st / 102ave

[Coldrsx]

The City has significant funds, $30mil or so, for a larger 'central' park that is/was to be parcelled north of Jasper between 106 and 108sts... but I believe that is going to be challenging. Ideally we would get a really great facility with the Milner, but there is a need in McKay Ave for some equipment. The challenge is that — Mather park is already well used by dogs, quite busy actually and so I am not sure that is the best spot given that many pups might be displaced. It is ideal for dogs given that it is fenced on multiple sides and large enough for people to play with them on and off leash.

Perhaps the central park can be a bit smaller than originally anticipated, but with a real focus on kids first.

That said, Grandin School is a really nice alternative and only a 5-10min walk.
