Withrow Park

Withrow Park, Public park in Riverdale, Canada

Withrow Park is an 8.5-hectare park in Riverdale, Toronto, bounded by Carlaw Avenue, Bain Avenue, Logan Avenue and McConnell Avenue. Laid out in the 1910s alongside the surrounding neighbourhood, it holds sports fields, an ice rink and tobogganing hills.

Withrow Park was laid out and built in the 1910s alongside the surrounding Riverdale community. It is named after John Jacob Withrow (1833–1900), a local landowner and builder who was a city alderman and a founder of what became the Canadian National Exhibition. In 2004, hot dogs laced with carbofuran left in the park killed one dog and poisoned 15 others; the city fenced off most of the park during the investigation, and no charges were laid.

The park takes its name from John Jacob Withrow, a local landowner and builder who was also a city alderman and a founder of what became the Canadian National Exhibition. Its ice rink, refurbished in the late 2000s, is used for skating in winter.

The park is open year-round and free to visit, making it easy to stop by for sports or a walk with family. Winter brings ice skating and sledding opportunities, while the warmer months are better for field activities.

The ice rink gained attention in 2008 when a professional hockey team held a practice session there to celebrate its renovation. This event brought the park into the spotlight for sports fans across the city.
