Alma Park East, nestled in the heart of our city, has long been a beloved haven for locals and visitors to our city. Now, with a fresh upgrade, it emerges as a beacon of community collaboration and environmental stewardship.
And it’s not just people who benefit. We wanted to prioritise the rare and natural ecosystem that exists in the middle of our urban environment. That’s why we collaborated with ecologists to safeguard the balance of indigenous flora and fauna. Notably, the preservation of a thriving population of Southern Brown Tree Frogs makes the natural ecosystem of Alma Park East rare in a city environment.
We’ve also made improvements to accessibility and inclusivity. We’ve installed a new barbecue plaza, complemented by upgraded furniture and a water play feature for visitors of all ages and abilities. We also redesigned pathways to make it easier for people with disabilities.
