Thomson Memorial Park, Urban park in Scarborough district of Toronto, Canada
Thomson Memorial Park spans 41.8 hectares along West Highland Creek, featuring wooded ravines, walking paths, sports facilities, and recreational areas for community enjoyment.
The land contains preserved houses from the 1790s belonging to the Thomson family, Scarborough's founders, now part of the Scarborough Historical Museum collection.
Archaeological excavations in 1956 revealed a significant Huron-Wendat village site from the late 1200s, connecting the area to indigenous heritage.
The park provides multiple amenities including baseball diamonds, tennis courts, picnic areas, playgrounds, wading pools, and designated off-leash zones for dogs.
The 2021 playground enhancement introduced inclusive play equipment, including specialized swings for children with mobility requirements and accessible recreational spaces.
