As of summer of 2026, the neighbourhood will be able to enjoy this new cooling spot, which features two distinct areas: a calm and friendly area where families can relax without getting wet, and a second area dedicated to children, with fun water pads that encourage free play. In the evening, changing colors projected onto the ground transform the site into a magical and soothing space.

The result of the Ville de Montréal’s participatory budget, this winning project—funded to the tune of $1 million—reflects citizens’ desire to create meeting places and spaces for well-being that are accessible to all. It is part of an effort to revitalize public spaces, led by the borough and supported by the local population and Montrealers.
