Rosel Park

The City of London Parks Design & Construction Section is considering improvements to Rosel Park and would like to hear your feedback.

Rosel Park is located at 21 Rosel Crescent, within a neighbourhood that is currently underserved for parkland. Rosel Park serves residents that live within approximately 800 metres, or a ten-minute walk. Prior to making decisions, the City of London would like to hear from residents to ensure Rosel Park reflects neighbourhood needs, while providing an inclusive and enjoyable space for all.

Subject to public input, this project could create an updated and welcoming space for the neighbourhood through the implementation of new park amenities and tree plantings, which would help achieve objectives outlined in the City's Parks and Recreation Master Plan.

To support engagement efforts, the Parks Design & Constructions Section has generated four preliminary design concepts to help inspire ideas and suggestions from area residents. These represent a range of ideas that could be implemented. (It should be noted that more intense uses, such as spray pads, tennis and pickleball courts, are not suitable for this small park space.)

We look forward to hearing your thoughts! Click or tap each image for a closer look.

(Please note these design concepts are approximations, and they are subject to change upon collection of public feedback.)

Do nothing: Plant a few additional trees while leaving the central grass space open for unprogrammed activities and play.

Neighbourhood Park: Plant new trees, add benches and an asphalt pathway running from east to west through the park. Build a small playground circle that will include accessible play equipment and swings for those ages 2-12 years old. Maintain open grass space for unprogrammed activities and play.

Neighbourhood Park: Plant new trees, add benches and a more extensive asphalt pathway system that connects all three corners in Rosel Park. Build a small playground circle that will include accessible play equipment and swings for those ages 2-12 years old. The City could consider exchanging the playground equipment for outdoor exercise equipment based on community feedback. Maintain open grass space for unprogrammed activities and play.

Urban Park: Plant new trees, add benches, a more extensive concrete walkway network and larger seating areas that connect all three corners in Rosel Park. Build a larger focal point in the park that could accommodate larger playground equipment and swings, or potentially outdoor exercise equipment, based on community feedback. Maintain open grass space for unstructured activities and play.
