The Trillium Park site is a three hectare property located in the False Creek flats in the community of Strathcona and is bounded by Malkin, Thornton and National Avenues. The proposed concept is for two regulation-sized synthetic turf playing fields with associated lighting on the south side of the site to be constructed in 2009. This will be followed with the future development of a passive park on the north side.
