Douglas Park offers ample open fields, community center, and playground area, all popular destinations. The main tree-lined promenade is a pleasant place to sit and take in views of the entire park. The pear tree is wonderful. New playground was built.
The purpose of this blog is to visit and review all parks in the City of Vancouver.

Oak Meadows
In 2007 this park was redeveloped to include a soccer field and two Ultimate (see link under Related Links below) playing fields. The park also features an off-leash dog meadow, children's play area and natural, treed areas. The park was named in October 2008 following a public process that included submissions from community residents. This popular field is the result of a joint project between the Vancouver School Board and the Vancouver Park Board. The School Board owns the property and the Park Board paid for the construction of the field.
Heather Park
Follow the gently curving paths to a small but charming children's play area that is complemented by trees and vibrant flowers. Heather Park is surrounded by magnificent street trees and offers both playing field and tennis courts.
In 1913 this site was established as a park in the West Point Grey Municipality. It was named for its bounding street, one of many in the area between Cambie and MacDonald streets that refer to trees or shrubs. In 1914 it was home to the B.C. Electric Cricket Club and was an old Chinese market garden prior to World War I.Jonathan Rogers Park
