UPDATE - March 25, 2024.

We are pleased to announce that the Bingham Park Improvement Project will enter the construction phase as of the 1st week of April, 2024. As you are aware, there will be construction within every area of the park during this improvement project. The park will therefore be closed for the duration of the construction phase. Nearby parks include Cathcart, Bordeleau, Jules Morin, Riverain and Optimiste Parks. All these locations offer playgrounds and greenspace, Bordeleau and Riverain Parks offer splash pads and wading pools can be found in Jules Morin and Optimiste Parks.

Construction will start the first week of April and be completed by the end of October.

We thank you for your cooperation and look forward to the fall park re-opening.



The City is looking for your help to improve Bingham Park. Bingham Park is a 0.68 hectare park located in Ward 12 Rideau-Vanier. It is bordered between Bolton St., Cathcart St. and Dalhousie St. The park’s municipal address is 145 Cathcart Street. Existing park amenities include a tennis court, wading pool, play equipment, site furniture, service building, community flower garden, seasonal outdoor rink, baseball diamond, pathways, open greenspace, public art fencing, trees and landscaping.

A community survey was conducted in fall 2021 in which residents were invited to identify the amenities they would like to have included in Bingham Park. The survey results were presented and discussed during an online consultation held on February 24, 2022.

Residents were invited to review and provide comments on the proposed preliminary concept design posted between September 26 and October 17 as well as during an online presentation held on October 3.

A follow up meeting was held with representatives of the Friends of Bingham Park and the Lowertown Community Association to review the comments received.

The City and the Consulting team tried to accommodate as many requests as possible and are please to present the proposed final concept drawing. At this time, the City invites residents to review and provide comments on the proposed final Concept Design which can be found under the Concept Design tab on the right of your screen. The questionnaire is a blank form that can be used to provide comments.

The consultation period will be open from April 27, 2023 to May 17, 2023.

Once the consultation period is completed, the City will review all comments received and proceed to the detailed design phase of the project followed by the tendering process. At this time, we anticipate a construction start in late fall 2023 with completion in summer 2024.
