Venue Description
Hillcrest/Nat Bailey Stadium Park is located in a lively Vancouver community that includes beautiful Queen Elizabeth Park and views of North Shore mountains. This park is well-served by public transportation, including the new Canada Line.
Construction Update
The environmental assessment has been completed and the Olympic-mode design is nearing final completion. A construction manager has been retained for the project. Parking lot construction, site utility installations and bulk excavation are underway. The entire project will be completed by the fall of 2008.
Post-Games Use
After the 2010 Winter Games, the curling venue will become a multi-purpose community recreation centre that will include an ice hockey rink, gymnasium, library and eight sheets of curling ice. Attached to, and being constructed with the new curling venue/community centre, is a new aquatic centre with a 50-metre pool and leisure pool to be managed by the Vancouver Board of Parks and Recreation.
