The Transcona park lost its original play structure in 2017 when it was destroyed by arson.

“The transformation of Harbourview Park demonstrates an understanding of local needs and aspirations keeping play at the centre of community services,” said Coun. Sherri Rollins, Chairperson of the Standing Policy Committee on Protection, Community Services and Parks.

“I am delighted that Harbourview Park has a significant investment for children and I hope they enjoy it this summer and for years to come.”
