#207: Portside View Park
“There’s no Portside View so the title is pretty misleading.”
#208: Shaughnessy Park
It’s a symbolic park. But the symbols may be different depending on who you are.
#209: Hastings Community Park
The problems that plague the park aren’t exactly fixable, but it still serves its purpose for people living nearby adequately enough.
#210: Minipark @ Cardero & Comox
There is easily more benches and tables than the other miniparks, making it more inviting to sit and let the time go by.
#211: Angus Park
Would one come here if they didn’t live in Shaugnessy? No, they would not.
#213: Arbutus Park
Undeveloped triangle parks are a beacon of this city, and this is certainly one of them.
#214: Triangle Park
A fine space to enjoy a bite to eat, but another area where one wonders why it’s technically a park.
#215: Jean Beaty Park
The park itself is a little smaller than the other waterfront pocket parks, with two paths limiting the amount of green space.
