Hilton Memorial Gardens Playspace

The playspace has been designed to create an innovative play experience that reflects the aspirations and philosophies being developed by the City of West Torrens for play, open space and recreation.

This project delivers a district level destination, where individuals can play, socialise and connect to their local environment and community. Integrated with the broader reserve through a series of new entrance paths, it connects to the Memorial, Library and Council Civic Centre.

Designed to offer a gradient of play opportunities for all ages and abilities, it transitions from challenging equipment and mounds towards the western end, climbing and spinning opportunities to the north, through to a sand, water play and jumping area adjacent the Somerset Avenue entrance.
