  • Improve connectivity to open spaces within the Quarters Downtown’
  • Make the Armature and Kinistinâw Park a focal point and a year-round gathering place in the Quarters Downtown
  • Use environmentally friendly, sustainable landscape design practices
  • Ensure the publicly accessible open space is designed, maintained and managed to help keep it vibrant, safe and clean

Project Overview

Kinistinâw Park is an under-utilized open space located in the community of Boyle Street. As the centrepiece of The Quarters Downtown, Kinistinâw Park is envisioned as an inviting and safe urban park.

The design of Kinistinâw Park reflects the past, present and future stories of the community, encouraging everyday enjoyment and special opportunities for celebration and gathering. Integrated with the surrounding streets and properties, the park is designed to be a dynamic and well-loved neighbourhood destination that is a source of local pride.

Construction on Kinistinâw Park was done in two phases and was completed in fall 2022.
