A new playground was officially opened at Pacific Junction Heritage Park (715 Cathcart St.) on Oct. 15.<\/p>\n

The renovated play area includes a new play structure and swing set, as well as asphalt pathways, picnic tables, benches, and an outdoor classroom area for students attending Pacific Junction primary school next door.<\/p>\n

“Reinvesting in playgrounds is investing in the future — nurturing creativity, building connections, and giving children a safe space to grow, learn, and thrive,” said Coun. Evan Duncan (Charleswood-Tuxedo-Westwood), in a press release. “Pacific Junction Heritage Park is a great example of three levels of government working together to revitalize the heart of this community.”<\/p>\n
