This park is now complete.

The new park at the undeveloped public open space (POS) west of the old Swanbourne Hospital on St Johns Wood Boulevard has been completed.

Draft playground concept plans (nature-based and modular) have been developed (see document library).

These designs take into consideration the outcomes of the previous engagement feedback which was undertaken for the development of the park.

The City has sought multiple playground designs and is presenting two designs for your feedback based on the following criteria:


  • delivery within the approved budget of $136,000 with best value for money
  • best incorporated suggestions and ideas received from residents through the previous feedback
  • compliance with playground safety standards
  • appropriateness to the existing constructed play area
  • provision of inter-generational interaction
  • demonstrate a point of difference to playgrounds in close proximity.

How can you get involved, find out more or provide feedback?
