CITIZENS PARK

Public BBQ

Citizens Park operates as Richmond's most democratically confused recreational space, where territorial rights play out daily between enthusiastic dog owners and bewildered sports players. This fenced oval runs on a time-share arrangement - canines rule during off-hours while cricket and footy reclaim their turf during training. Dog enthusiasts congregate with devotion, armed with tennis balls and patience for canine politics, while sports teams navigate questionable ground conditions. Water fountains, bins, and waste stations suggest thoughtful planning, plus a children's playground creates three-way demographic harmony. Evening light transforms this suburban oval with spectacular sunsets providing backdrop for Richmond's four-legged parade.
