The Vancouver Park Board is developing a new one-hectare neighbourhood park near the border of the Kitsilano and Fairview neighborhoods. The Burrard Slopes Park* project area currently includes 6th and Fir Park, 5th and Pine Pop-up Park, a portion of the Arbutus Greenway, and a series of buildings that will be removed. We now have the opportunity to consider the site’s current amenities and build a vision for the future.

The round 1 public engagement survey has concluded. Thank you to everyone who shared their values, hopes and ideas during this first round of public engagement! A summary of what we heard is available here.

The project team is using this feedback to prepare preliminary concept plans. We will share these preliminary concept plans with you and invite your feedback as part of round 2 public engagement in fall 2024. Your feedback in this second round of engagement will help us to refine a preferred final concept.

*Burrard Slopes Park is a temporary name and we plan to identify an official park name through a separate process.



The Vancouver Board of Parks and Recreation acknowledges, with respect, that our parks are located on the unceded territories of the Musqueam, Squamish, and Tsleil-Waututh peoples.

    The vacant buildings at 1620, 1630 and 1670 W 5th Ave will be removed in preparation for construction of Burrard Slopes Park. The buildings have been deemed unfit for repurpose.

    Where possible, materials from the buildings will be reused to minimize demolition waste, in keeping with the City’s Green Demolition by-law and Zero Waste 2040.

    Building removal is planned to begin in spring 2024 and should take approximately 10-13 months. The area outlined in red on the map will remain closed during this time. Other amenities on this block are expected to remain open for the majority of the work.

    A temporary wildflower meadow will be planted to remediate the soil for the period between building removal and construction of the permanent park.
