First Look: New Neighbourhood Park Coming Late 2026

Written by Cedar Woods | 17 Jul 2026

 

Exciting things are taking shape at Eglinton Village, with construction now underway on the very first neighbourhood park.

Opening in late 2026, the new 1.7-hectare park on Uluwatu Crescent will become a vibrant destination where residents can connect, play and unwind, all just moments from home. Positioned alongside the newly opened Eglinton Shopping Centre, the park has been thoughtfully designed to bring recreation, convenience and community together in one central location.  

A little more time to play

Whether you're meeting friends for a coffee, enjoying a family barbecue, watching the kids explore the playground or simply relaxing outdoors, the new park has been designed for residents of all ages and abilities.

A standout feature will be the elevated lookout platform, creating a seamless connection between the park and Eglinton Shopping Centre. Complete with a future coffee window operated by Il Posto Eglinton, bar-style seating and a 2.5-metre slide into the playground below, it will offer a unique space to relax while overlooking the park. The platform also forms part of the park's fully accessible design, ensuring everyone can enjoy the space with ease.

Features you'll love

When the park opens, you'll be able to enjoy:

  • Elevated lookout platform connecting directly to Eglinton Shopping Centre, complete with access to il Posto Eglinton’s coffee window for your morning caffeine needs, bar seating and a 2.5-metre slide to the playground below
  • Double flying fox stretching 25 metres
  • Adventure playground featuring a tube slide, climbing net, rope bridge, swings and imaginative play cubby
  • Barbecue facilities, shaded seating and drinking fountain
  • Outdoor calisthenics equipment and relaxed seating for teens and young adults
  • Large kick-about turf area for everyday recreation and community events
  • More than 260 mature trees and over 2,000sqm of retained vegetation

Creating the heart of the community  

The new park builds on the recent opening of Eglinton Shopping Centre, anchored by Woolworths and 15 speciality retailers, creating a true community hub where everyday essentials, recreation and social connection are all within easy reach.

From the very beginning, Eglinton Village has been planned as a walkable coastal community where homes, parks, schools, shopping and public transport work together to make everyday life easier.

As our community continues to grow, the new neighbourhood park is another exciting step towards that vision. Construction is now underway, with the park expected to open in late 2026.
