Background: The Marpole Neighbourhood
Inhabited since time immemorial by the Musqueam
people;
Ancestral Musqueam village site, c̓əsnaʔəm, is
located within the current Marpole neighbourhood’s
boundaries
European settlement led to urbanization and
dispossession of Musqueam people from their
lands.
Current neighbourhood form began to develop in
1860s.
Experienced 43% population growth from 1981 to
2011, in line with Vancouver’s growth of 41%;
Now a growing community of long-time residents,
newcomers, families and seniors.

Fall 2017: A Needs Assessment Study for a new Marpole Community
Centre began
Recreation programming needs were identified, based on current
building function, service levels, best practices, recreation context,
relevant policy, community engagement, and expected growth
Late 2018: A preliminary program definition was developed for the
building, which includes high level room program definitions,
interrelationships and rough sizes

1. Most popular recreation activities: fitness classes/activities
and swimming
2. Barriers to participation in recreation: challenges getting to and from facilities, overcrowding
3. Desirable indoor amenities: indoor swimming, fitness centre, gym, multipurpose rooms, and commercial-grade kitchen.
4. Desirable outdoor amenities: play space, walking paths, and
social spaces (plaza/festival space/picnic areas).
5. Not enough services for seniors’ health and wellness, youth
drop-in and academic support, and childminding.
6. Engagement responses validated Oak Park as the preferred location for the new community centre.

Spring 2019: A Schematic Master Plan Study for Oak Park began
Purpose of this work was to find the best possible location for the
new community centre while balancing existing park uses, and
also to properly site the outdoor pool to have a strong relationship
to the building
October 2019: A preferred schematic master plan was developed
for Oak Park

C. Schematic Master Plan: Key Design Highlights:
31
Safe pedestrian and bike access
is important
- Vehicular and service access from Park Drive
- Minimize traffic on 59th (bike route) and Fremlin St.
Visible, accessible and inviting - Locate building at SW corner of Oak Park
More parking, minimize impact
to the park
- Locate parking underground
- Some surface spots for drop off/accessibility
Retain trees and maximize
green space for casual use
- Preservation of greatest number of established trees
- NE corner of park dedicated to green space for casual use - Incorporate safe, accessible and inviting walking paths and
loops within Oak Park
Continue to provide fields and
diamonds for local sports groups. Improve gravel field.
- Upgrade lit gravel field to multi-purpose all weather
- Remove 1 t-ball diamond, upgrade remaining t-ball
