The city of Vancouver has identified no fewer than 22 recently completed improvements to city parks, ranging from the New Brighton Park Shoreline, whose salt marsh doubles as a habitat for wildlife, to the Quilchena Skateboard Park. Parks and beaches can also be cultural venues for professional as well as amateur performers. People can simply spend their free time to read at these outdoor locales. Furthermore, school grounds can act as “oasis yards,” which double as urban heat sinks.
A community centre would be an integral part of the neighbourhood, where people can perform, express themselves, and interact with each other. The city has 24 of them, and funds have been earmarked for upgrades.
