About Howard Park

Both Union Gas and the City of Windsor own a portion of Howard Avenue Park. In 1986, representatives of Union Gas met with Department of Parks and Recreation officials in an effort to establish a mutually acceptable parkland development plan for the site. Ultimately, the gas company financed the development of both properties and suggested paying the City a yearly fee to cover maintenance costs in exchange for easement rights. The City was agreeable to this proposal, and the new Howard Avenue Park was quickly developed. Trees and shrubs were planted; a fence was erected; and an asphalt parkway running through the park was installed. Completed in 1988, the park offers a quiet peaceful setting for the enjoyment of area residents.

AKO Park

Originally established as Rossini Park in 1951, the Alpha Kai Omega (AKO) Fraternity began exploring how to become involved in the future development of the park when the City was constructing an athletic building on the site. In 1961, the neighbourhood centre was constructed as the first facility in Windsor designed specifically as a community centre. In 2007, the centre was renamed the Constable John Atkinson Memorial Community Centre, in honour of Constable John Atkinson, Windsor Police Services, who was killed in the line of duty. AKO Park has an outdoor spray pad featuring 22 different water toys, which are computer programmed for a sequence of water fun. The spray pad is open to the public at no charge from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. The Community Centre is available for birthday parties. For inquires, please call 519-945-2452.

Abraham Cole Park

A tough find and hidden gem, follow along a winding paved trail next to the CN railroad tracks through Abraham Cole Park and you will find a small set of playground equipment with soft woodchip ground cover and a park bench.
