Coopers' Park renewal City of Vancouver

The City of Vancouver is revitalizing Coopers' Park, located under the Cambie Bridge, to better serve its community and their pets. Based on feedback from public engagement events held in 2018 and 2019, the Park Board has crafted a plan that includes a Pacific Northwest-themed fitness area and a complete renewal of the existing playground. The dog off-leash area has already opened as of summer 2024, providing a new space for pet owners and their dogs to enjoy. Future improvements will incorporate additional exercise facilities and a new playground, enhancing recreational options for all ages. Safety improvements for pedestrians and cyclists are also part of the project, ensuring a secure environment in this urban area.

With these developments, the park aims to offer year-round use and increased accessibility for residents. The initiative is aligned with the City’s broader strategy to enhance public green spaces and recreational facilities. This transformation is a significant step towards creating a vibrant community hub that caters to diverse recreational needs.
