huh, dunno then. There isn't any reference to Queen's Park (ther than the cemetery and off leash park) on the city's website, so it's likely not a city maintained park.

Oh, it's very much so a city owned and maintained park - been driving by this park for 18 plus years on an almost daily basis. It's on the city's web site - just hidden away sort of like this park.

Interesting that Google Maps has this one mis-named as well - they call the park at that address Beaupre Park which is actually located about 2 blocks to the west.

At a standard CoC city block being 100 meters long (10 blocks to a kilometre, 16 to a mile) then I would say it's 2 square city blocks by area.

Had to search the Community Parks and Playground's list to find it, luckily it is one of the few that is named.

The Model T looks like something one would see on Bow Cr but I'm just guessing, I don't have a specific address.

Nope, probably at least 7 miles away from where this Model T is. Wrong quadrant as well.

SE Calgary, if you've driven to the hatchery then you've driven by this relic.
