Statement of Significance
This is a small patch of publicly accessible garden in an area of medium density housing. It is well maintained and pleasant. This is a tangible reminder of people and an event that might otherwise be lost to the community. While the tragedy occurred in another place, the three youths were locals and Geoffrey Dalziel lived in the house on this block. The park honours the bravery of the three youths and is a memorial to Geoffrey Dalziel.
Physical Description
