History

Neighbourhood

Kings Park began in the early 20th century, located 240 yards (220 m) from the newly created University of Manitoba Agricultural College and Connaught Park. Having the University of Manitoba nearby increased the land value from $125.00 to $4,000 per acre. Adjacent to the park, 124 treed lots were subdivided for housing.[1]

Electric streetcar service was planned early on, to serve both the Park and the Agricultural College.[2]

The subdivision has the Kings Park Community Club. Originally activities took place at St. Avila School until a separate building could be built.[3]

Park

The 92 acres (37.4 ha) park features two baseball diamonds, an off leash dog walk, football and soccer fields, Chinese pagoda, 6.9 acres (2.8 ha) lake including a waterfall,
