Developed by Millennium Development Corp, City in the Park is a master-planned South Burnaby community spanning 16 acres and seven residential towers, with over 85% of its land dedicated to expansive green space. The heart and focal point of this award-winning development is a grand, Versailles-style European formal garden anchored by an elegant, elongated rectangular reflecting pool and fountain feature. Flanked by manicured parterre lawns, clipped hedges, intricate rose swirls, and a signature grand staircase, the central fountain sends arching water jets across the calm basin, instilling an immediate sense of classical European grandeur. Framed by double rows of mature maple trees, this central aquatic axis serves as a tranquil, symmetrical sanctuary that seamlessly blends European garden artistry with modern urban livability.
