About the Park
This small urban oasis offers many pleasant seating areas for eating lunch, reading a paper, or playing a game of chess. A fast-flowing stream culminates in a tiered fountain surrounded by pergolas and lush plantings. When the bright flowers of the summer have faded, mosaics in the streambed and next to the pathway continue to add colour throughout the winter. Recently the park has expanded and now includes a new playground area as well as a fenced dog off leash area. There will be another expansion coming in the future, when the commercial buildings located at the corner of Richards and Davie.
Walking distance to Yaletown restaurants, shops, sky train and marina.
History
The park was officially opened on September 27, 2003 and named for Emery Barnes, a long time community activist and member of the British Columbia Legislature.
