Borden Park (Edmonton, AB)

The city of Edmonton wanted a playground at Borden Park that was innovative and reflective of the natural and historic surroundings. GameTime created three distinctive play areas that promoted exploration and discovery for children of all ages and abilities: a treetop village, a zoo, and a roller coaster.

The zoo includes GFRC sculptured brown bear climbers and decorative elements like beehives and monkeys. The treetop village features enormous, exquisitely detailed trees that provide areas of climbing and exploration. The centerpiece of the playground is the roller coaster. Modeled after a historic coaster from a bygone era, it features standard climbers and slides embellished with custom GFRC elements and roof structures.
