Jonathan Rogers Park

Jonathan Rogers Park is a 1.4-hectare neighbourhood park in Mount Pleasant. The park serves an increasingly dense area with limited green space. It requires updates to meet future demand while remaining welcoming and accessible for all.

The park has been identified as a priority for improvements through several city-wide plans and strategies; the planned improvements will take place in the eastern half of the park. The project will focus on improving amenities and accessibility, following inclusive design principles and supporting safety, climate resilience, and sustainability.

Key improvements currently being explored include:

• A renewed playground designed for children of all ages and abilities
• A fenced dog off-leash area
• Improved site accessibility

The project will keep the community garden and open space including the ball diamond for recreation, socializing, and community events.

The park was identified as a priority for improvements through several city-wide plans and strategies. These plans and strategies, technical considerations, and public input are what will guide the refined concept design.
