About Anderson Park

This is a small local park located at the corner of Lygon and Blyth Streets, in Brunswick East. Some of the existing features of this reserve can be seen in the images under Existing Park Conditions, below.

Improving the park

After delays in progressing the early stages of planning, funding was re-allocated in Council’s current budget to carry out improvements to Anderson Park. This includes upgrading of the play space as part of the play space renewal under the Merri-bek Play Strategy 2016-2020.

Extended engagement Dec 2020 - Aug 2021

As a consequence, we extended the time taken to hear from locals, and others in the community, and we now have plenty of advice about how the park is used, what people love about it, and what we can do to make it even better.

A summary of your feedback about the park

We learned a lot from your stories and feedback and we have summarised the main findings into four areas of interest:

• Things people like about the park
• Things that can be improved
• Things people want included in an upgrade
• Additional insights and queries

You can read more about these categories in the Feedback Summary (PDF 166KB).

Developing a draft plan

We used this feedback to inform our draft concept plan which is now available to view on the main project page.
