A New District Park on Peter Rupert Avenue
Page Content


Get ready to run, jump, splash and play – a new district park is coming to your neighbourhood!
 
The City of Vaughan is making progress on developing a new 7.7-hectare (19-acre) district park at the northwest corner of Peter Rupert Avenue and Rutherford Road. The proposed park will be dynamic, welcoming and inspiring, and it will feature a wide range of amenities for the entire community to enjoy. The park rests within a study area of approximately 28.5 hectares (70 acres) of greenspace including parkland, open space trails, stormwater ponds, and the Cook Woodlot with connections to the Rutherford GO station. With places and spaces for kids to play, event staging for concerts, relaxing seating zones and so much more, people of all ages and abilities will be able to relax and enjoy this new outdoor amenity area.
 
Based on community feedback, the City has confirmed the amenities to be included within the park and has moved into the next phase of the project – developing the layout and landscape design concepts.
 
Two potential park concepts were shared through an online self-guided Public Open House which ran from July 29 to Aug. 19, 2021 seeking citizen thoughts and feedback. Taking into consideration community feedback collected on both concepts, along with technical and operational aspects, illustrated below is the final park master plan that will be further developed through detailed design.

Master Plan: Block 18 District Park
