The park was created in 1976 on what had been the site of the home of Nobel laureate Frederick Banting.[3] After extensive renovations the park reopened in July 2011, with an avant-garde sculpture centrepiece by Ilan Sandler, created from {{convert|4|km|mi}} of stainless steel rod, the approximate length of Taddle Creek.[4] See also
