Location
Getting Here
634 10th Street, New Westminster, BC
🚇 Transit
The park is well-served by frequent bus routes along major corridors like 6th Street and 8th Avenue. For those on SkyTrain, a quick connecting bus from New Westminster or 22nd Street Station is your best bet.
🚗 Parking
A dedicated lot is accessible off 7th Avenue, but it fills up very quickly during events or on sunny weekends. Arrive early or prepare to hunt for street parking in the surrounding residential blocks.
