Brookvale Park

Brookvale Park is an urban park centered on a large lake bordered by walking paths, open grassland, and wooded sections that provide different types of outdoor recreation. The site includes tennis courts, a children's play area, and designated fishing spots for visitors to use.

The park's origins trace back to the 1800s when the lake was created to serve as a water supply reservoir for the city. Over time the site was repurposed and transformed into the recreational park that residents use today.

This park brings neighbors together as a regular gathering place where people spend time outdoors in groups and participate in activities shared with their community. Local organizations use the grounds to connect with residents and maintain the space as a central social hub.

The park can be reached from several entry points including Park Road, George Road, and Lakeside Walk for flexible access from different directions. Wear comfortable shoes for walking the paths and be prepared for weather conditions that change with the seasons.

A small island within the lake provides refuge for wild waterfowl and supports the park's natural ecosystem in ways visitors often overlook. This natural feature adds ecological value beyond the recreational purpose and creates a habitat for bird species.
