Central Memorial Park, Victorian park in Beltline district, Calgary, Canada
Central Memorial Park spans 4.7 acres with geometric pathways, formal gardens, native trees, fountains, and the Memorial Park Library building.
William Pierce secured federal land in 1899 for the park's establishment, leading to its completion in 1912 as Calgary's first public park.
The park features multiple military monuments, including a cenotaph and an equestrian statue commemorating soldiers from the Second Boer War.
The park provides benches throughout its grounds and hosts food trucks during summer months, with easy access from downtown Calgary.
The bronze equestrian statue, modeled after Eneas McCormick on Pat Burns's pony, measures one and half times life size.
