Design Approach

Three Districts in ONE Park

From Minoru Lakes to Minoru 3 Latrace Fields to the Richmond Cultural Centre, Minoru Park contains a broad range of features, facilities, and programs. Generally, there is a concentration of Arts and Culture facilities in the southeast area of the park; a concentration of Active Living and sports facilities in the centre of the park; and more informal uses around the Lakes area to the north. Both preliminary Minoru Park Vision Plan options organize these areas into distinct districts, each with its own central hub that could contain washrooms, a concession/food service, seating, and/or covered outdoor space.
