A Place of Quiet in Loyola Park

The new soccer field at Loyola Park has been completed and the children's area has been moved and improved, but thankfully nothing has been done to this quiet area; some things don't need to be improved, they're perfect just as they are.

Let's begin our walking tour of places of peace and quiet in this part of our neighbourhood. 

A Place of Contemplation in Loyola Park

Soccer, baseball, exercise machines, wading pools for children, these and other activities are available at Loyola Park just a few blocks from where I live. But, also, the City has created some areas for contemplation and quiet, for instance this quadrangle entered through one of four gates. There was also an attempt to restore a small pond from the lost underground St. Pierre River that runs through the park to Wentworth Golf Course. Plants suitable for an aquatic "garden" were planted. The pond failed but the vestiges of it are still present near the baseball diamond. Acknowledging that not everyone is interested in physical exercise is important; it allows for a greater diversity of activities at Loyola Park and other places in Montreal.
