About this space
Emu Park
Part of the Bowden urban renewal project, Emu Park resembles a Spanish ‘plaza’ (or ‘plaça’), a central meeting place within a town. With multiple entry points the park invites us in to sit under the multiple shaded seating options, bring a ball or a book, and enjoy the sculpture art and namesake of the park.
Within the thriving urban neighbourhood, a stone’s throw from the city, this playful park actively complements its surroundings.
Emu Park features;
· 3x3 basketball court,
· barbecue facilities
· shaded dining seating,
· playground
· urban art/ sculpture & creative signage
Bowden is designed as a walkable residential & cultural zone, with the surrounding area offering art spaces and galleries, community gardens and the Plant 4 market to explore.
