History

Beasley Park was originally developed in 1976. Until then, Beasley Park was the site of some of Hamilton's early industries, including the Grand Trunk Railway yards.[2] In 1991, the redevelopment of the park was deemed a priority for revitalization of the Beasley neighbourhood.

Improvements included the installation of an accessible creative play structure, a decorative fountain, concrete walkway, a community centre, and a skateboarding area. Funding was provided by the Province of Ontario through the programme for Renewal, Improvement, Development, Economic revitalization and Housing Intensification (P.R.I.D.E. H.I.N.T.) and the City of Hamilton.[3]
