Quick Facts
- Now the busiest park in Nanaimo, Maffeo Sutton Park has developed over the last 65 years from an industrial site into Nanaimo’s destination waterfront park.
- The original Maffeo Sutton Park Improvement Plan was developed in 2008 with the Spirit Square opening in 2009 as the first phase of park improvements. City Council has since requested an update to reflect recent park expansion and the changing downtown context.
