Fred A. Morie Park

Description

Fred A. Morie (d. 1981) transformed land that was being used as a garbage dump into a park. Beginning in 1944, Morie beautified this open space that local residents had turned into a waste site. City Council originally approved “Morie Park,” however, Morie wished to have his full name associated with the park. The Fred A. Morie Park in the Strathcona neighbourhood has an area of 0.29 ha.
