City of Markham, Ontario
Boxgrove Community Park
A testament to teamwork, experience and hard work, this park became an instant source of community pride and play.
In 2020, Openspace proudly secured an RFP to design and build a new playground for the vibrant Box Grove neighbourhood in Markham. Our initial proposal not only met the client’s requirements but positioned us as the successful proponent for this exciting endeavour.

Objectives
An exciting project with a clear vision
The goal for this project was clear: To create a junior and senior playspace where inclusive features ensure children of varying abilities can play and engage together.
Process
Truly collaborative design
Through collaboration with the City of Markham and NAK Design, the design evolved through several iterations to more closely align with the project vision. The final concept prioritizes universal inclusivity, incorporating a series of ramps and thoughtfully selected ground-level play features that distinguish the space and enhance accessibility for users of all abilities.
