Windows-to-the-Lake

Posted on Monday, March 27, 2023 03:45 PM

Windows-to-the-Lake Projects

Windows-to-the-Lake are small park settings along the shoreline, connecting Burlington residents to Lake Ontario. They are a place to meet, take a rest, observe nature, listen to the waves, watch weather move across the water, and enjoy the beauty of sunsets over the lake.

The City will be enhancing these connections to the water over the next two years.  Each site renewal will provide, at minimum, a paved pathway and accessible seating.

Next Steps:

Design and construction of lake property by location:

Green Street
  • 2021 – Design of shoreline reconstruction
  • 2022-2023 – Shoreline construction, design of parkland/window-to-the-lake
  • 2024 – Construction of parkland/window-to-the-lake

Love My Playground! Survey - thank you for your input

In 2021, the City conducted a ‘Love my Playground’ survey to get feedback about the types of equipment the community would like to see at local playgrounds when the equipment is replaced in 2023. Thank you to everyone who completed the survey. 

Your input was used by the playground designers when deciding which pieces of play equipment to include in the Lampman Park playground.

Central Park Seniors Exercise Stations and Social Space

Posted on Wednesday, November 16, 2022 11:31 AM

Location:

Central Park will be the home of new Seniors Exercise Stations and Social Space. The exercise stations will have workout equipment that are built for seniors. In between gentle workouts, the seniors can rest and socialize at the seating benches under the shade of trees.

See Location Map[PDF]

Description:

This project is from a donation from the Burlington Seniors Community Programs and Services Inc. (BSCI). The BSCI donated the first Seniors Exercise Stations and Social Space in the beautiful Burloak Waterfront Park in 2020. The success of this project prompted the decision by BSCI to build a second one in Central Park. Central Park was chosen as the site is frequented by seniors who may be visiting the Seniors Centre and the library.

See Exercise Stations Drawings(PDF)(Final Colours May Vary)

Construction Timeline:

The project will take place in two stages:

  1. Construction of the concrete pad space in November/early December 2022
  2. Installation of the exercise stations in April 2023.
