C O N C LUS I O N• The main cause of this assignment was to identify the

specific characteristic that a community park has, be it in this case the area and the fact that community parks are run by the community and that they have a say in what goes on in the park.

• The community can speak their minds to alter the park and benefit the whole community.

• The park would feature community based attractions such as sport facilities, toilets, relaxation areas such as pagodas, a playground for kids, a fitness area and many many more.

• We are lucky enough to live near parks, open spaces, and greenways know the joys they bring: the calming views of trees and green lawns, the singing of birds, and also the fresh air.

• Building a basketball court is far cheaper than building a shopping mall. Yet because we have not invested in city parks, many children have nowhere to play outdoors
