John McLaren Park Playground (Delta Street)

The play garden is part of a six block greenway with fruit trees, public art and gardens, so wandering is half the fun.

Built for the under-six crowd, so bigger kids run out of things to do fast; it isn't set up for wheelchairs.

A neighborhood playground with a slide and open lawn, renamed to honor a beloved grandmother and community advocate.

Picnic tables by the dozen and ducks to watch on McNab Lake, with a playground, courts, a soccer pitch and two ball fields; dogs welcome.

A bike park with tracks for all skill levels, great for kids learning BMX or mountain biking.
