Jarry Park redevelopment plans raise concerns among local residents and youth baseball players
Jarry Park redevelopment faces pushback in Montreal’s Villeray borough See why residents want city planners to protect public access and local sports
Residents in Montreal’s Villeray–SaintMichel–ParcExtension borough are urging the city and Tennis Canada to reconsider redevelopment plans for Jarry Park.
Some community members and youth baseball players say the proposed changes could limit how the park serves local families and sports groups, and they worry the projects will not meet community needs.
The concerns come as debate continues over how the park should balance new development with public access and recreational use.
