The Vancouver Board of Parks and Recreation is planning a new half-block urban park for the Mount Pleasant community at the intersection of Main Street and 7th Avenue. This new urban park sits at the gateway to Mount Pleasant, one of Vancouver’s most vibrant neighbourhoods, and its design will strive to reflect the needs of the area. There are a number of existing parks nearby that allow different activities, like playgrounds and sports courts, and with events like Mural Festival and Car Free Day growing every year we hope the new park can be a flexible staging place for community events and all-season programming.

This project is partly funded by the Government of Canada's Natural Infrastructure Fund  for rainwater integration projects throughout the city.


What's happening?

We are excited to announce the new park at Main & 7th is now in construction and will quickly take shape over the coming months. As we get closer to a completion date, the timeline will be updated and the public will be notified.

The Park Board Commissioners unanimously approved the revised concept on May 29, 2023. This report summarizes the feedback we received on the proposed concept during the second round of engagement in November/December 2022. Please see the Phase 2 Engagement Booklet for the concept design and more information.

The Vancouver Board of Parks and Recreation acknowledges, with respect, that our parks are located on the unceded territories of the Musqueam, Squamish, and Tsleil-Waututh peoples.
