New Parks

New Parks!

Future and recently completed Parks
I don't update this page much. Just check the map
I try to stay up to date on parks that are raising funding, under council review or under construction.  I'll try to keep this section updated on new or proposed parks I haven't been to yet. (Dec 2024 update)

Great skateparks are built by skaters. The best producers of skateparks have skaters who design, survey and build.  They are also totally cool so if you ever want info on a park just contact them.

Drop-in Skateparks are now in Ontario
