What we’re doing
We’re creating a new park and smaller link park in north Rosebery. We invite your feedback on the design and proposed names for these new open spaces.
Why we’re doing this
These 2 new parks will provide important green space for a growing community to enjoy.
The larger park is at Crewe Place, Confectioners Way and Rosebery Avenue. The smaller park links Rosebery Avenue to Steadman Street and Confectioners Way.
Works to install the lighting in the smaller park has already started and will be completed in the coming weeks. The smaller park will be built in 2 stages. The second stage will be built when the neighbouring development is completed.
This project is part of our work to build new parks, upgrade existing ones and work with developers to provide more than 21 hectares of 40 parks and playgrounds in the Green Square area.
Naming proposals
Inspired by the historic sweet making enterprise on this site, we propose to name the park Allsorts Park and the smaller link park Honeykiss Park. We invite your feedback on these names.
The new parks are on the site of the former Sweetacres factory of James Stedman Henderson Ltd, which opened in 1918 on Rothschild Avenue, Rosebery.
