City of Toronto Parks, Forestry and Recreation are developing the park area that surrounds the Barns on three sides. Park features include a children’s play area, an open sports field with a natural ice rink in winter, a fenced in off-leash dog area, a beach volley ball court and picnic tables. In addition, approximately 150 trees, 1,500 shrubs and 900 perennials and grasses will be planted.

There are a circulation paths in the park aligned with the surrounding streets, such as Helena between Wychwood and Christie on the east-west axis and Slade on the north-south axis, as well as meandering paths, some of which follow the former streetcar tracks.

The layout and uses of the project are intended to complement each other and create as few barriers as possible, both physical and conceptual, between members and the community, between the park and the buildings and between indoor and outdoor environments.
