#154: Swingview Park

It’s technically called “Park Site on Trinity Street”, but online it’s called “Swingview Park”, for the very simple reason that there are four swings, and they provide a view.

#155: Dusty Greenwell Park

Aside from being a helpful off-leash dog area, it’s objectively not the greatest use of such a large waterfront space.

#156: McAuley Park

A small space that packs a punch in other words, even if the only reason to really be there is for the stuff around it.

#157: Arbutus Village Park

Few parks in the city have a slow-moving and developer-heavy origin story quite like Arbutus Village Park.

#158: Sahalli Park

A smallish park just a block north of Broadway and Fraser, the highlight of Sahalli is a rambling community garden on its east size.

#159: Major Matthews Park

The park occupies a former single-family lot on Manitoba just off 11th Avenue, and has a small modern playground good for 3 to 6-year olds.

#160: Art Phillips Park

It’s a nice honour for an important person, and a good place to have lunch and consider how the city has changed.

#161: Cartier Park

There’s a small flat field passable for T-Ball or children’s soccer, a few benches, a playground and a few tall trees for shade.

#162: Captain Cook Park

It’s good for a light jog, and can make a person living anywhere in the centre of the city jealous at all the nearby mini forests in this neighbourhood.

#163: Point Grey Road Park

Not only does it give a beautiful view, if you’re prepared enough you could probably set up a unique picnic.
