George Wainborn Park
Vancouver, British Columbia
1996-2004
This prominent waterfront park honours the ideals and accomplishments of a long time Park Board Commissioner; and provides a prime example of how polluted industrial sites can be transformed into important new public spaces. George Wainborn Park is a key element in the community plan for one of the most densely populated communities in North America. Features include a plaza with views over False Creek, the dramatic water feature, and a distinctive play area featuring large boulders and sculpted landforms.
