Bayview Park and George Park, Fannie Bay


Friend of the Internal Reserves blog Steven Barlow writes:
'Two internal parks I've discovered: Bayview Park and George Park at Fannie Bay in Darwin. The first has two openings to the streets and the second has only one, but they don't align for a continuous pedestrian route, unfortunately. Both are characterised by a lack of solid surrounding fences - mostly wire or railings so there is a very good relationship between the houses and the vegetated parkland (no palings in Darwin in any case). Both seem to be maintained and watered by the local government. The second one has a common picnic area with a table and play equipment. Cameron, Peac and Garden Parks in Jingili and Leanyer also seem to be examples as well as there being many "near internals" in Darwin suburbs along Radburn lines.'
