Located at 5 Park St. N., the Park was identified as a priority during the City of Peterborough’s Parks and Outdoor Recreation Study.  

Improvements to the park include: 

  • four new tennis courts 

  • improved lighting 

  • Legacy Bowl upgrades 

  • an off-leash dog area 

  • upgrading the wading pool to a splash pad 

  • adding washrooms 

  • adding more trees 

  • a shade structure 

  • enhancing accessibility  

Construction on the tennis courts is set to finish in the summer of next year and the remainder of the project is to be completed by fall of the same year.

Parking, including overnight parking, will be prohibited in the Knights of Columbus Park parking lot during construction. The no parking regulation for the parking lot during construction will be enforced, which can include the issuance of a penalty notice, towing and impoundment of the vehicle or a combination of these measures.
