Edmonton’s newest downtown park — O-day’min Park — has officially opened.
The park, which is located between 106 and 108 Streets and 102 and Jasper Avenues, was part of the Warehouse Park Project to transform gravel parking lots into a community park.
“Edmonton is growing and expected to become a city of two million people. We know a vibrant downtown and economic development goes hand in hand,” said Mayor Andrew Knack.
“Transforming gravel parking lots into this amazing park will not only revitalize our downtown, it will attract investment and encourage more Edmontonians to choose this neighbourhood as a place to live.”
Despite being open, construction around the park hasn’t finished yet, as work on the surrounding roadway and alleys is expected to continue into 2026.
Additionally, applications to develop more land next to the park are advancing, with six projects in various stages of planning. Additionally, it is estimated that 1,604 residential units are expected to be complete or under construction near the park by November 2026.
“Edmonton’s $48.6 million investment in the Warehouse Park Project was the catalyst to attract Maclab Development Group’s investment in The Parks, our 363-unit rental building,” said Bill Blais, President and CEO, Maclab Development Group.
“This investment in the Park shows what can be done when cities engage their developers, are able to invest in infrastructure and deliver a spectacular project. We look forward to future investments from Edmonton that will continue to attract more investment into downtown Edmonton and build on the success of this investment.”
Features of the park include a wide-open lawn space with a hill for tobogganing, an off-leash dog park, a pavilion with public washrooms, a playground, an outdoor exercise area, picnic tables, and other site furniture.
One of the main features is a Northern Lights installation, which creates a soft glow across the park’s central lawn.
Access to the park is available through designated public entrances, which can be viewed in the image below.
