This is a well used park, and the city is looking at it for an enhancement, so they would like input from residents on what could make it better!

Munro Park was identified as part of the City of Calgary’s Established Area Growth and Change Strategy (EAGCS). This project intends to provide important public space improvements in a growing and changing area by expanding the quality and capacity of the existing park through the addition of appropriate amenities.
Munro Park is currently well used but has further potential to enhance the local community, business activities, and improve connectivity in the area. The City has already made some improvements in Munro Park but there is still a vision to add playful amenities and connect the different park spaces into something creative, fun, and inclusive for all seasons.
Construction associated with Phase 1 of the Masterplan for Munro Park was completed in 2017, which included a constructed walking / running track with exercise nodes, additional picnic tables, trees, shrubs, and removal of the baseball diamond.
Current engagement is intended to address design proposals made in Phase 2 improvements of the park Masterplan, completed in 2014. These improvements initially proposed an enhanced playground and additional amenities such as a small skatepark, additional pathways, and a drinking fountain. However, the final scope of work will be influenced by this public engagement process.
