Balwin Properties’ commitment to excellence is exemplified by the prestigious 6-star rating awarded to its new offices. In alignment with Balwin’s dedication to community well-being, a transformative initiative has been set in motion with the upgrade of Winston Ridge Park, located to the north of the new Balwin Offices.

This visionary upgrade encompasses a holistic approach to community recreation and well-being. The planned features include a dedicated dog park, a security office, convenient changing rooms, a cozy coffee outlet, vibrant padel courts, a play area, and yoga decks. Embracing the ethos of inclusivity, existing activities such as the Atholl park run, an informal soccer field, gym trim equipment, and an outdoor chess board will also be seamlessly incorporated into the new design.

Recognizing the environmental impact, the project extends its scope to upgrade an existing attenuation pond, which will effectively manage stormwater by ensuring a gradual release into the environment. This contributes significantly to sustainable water management practices. However, the accessibility of Winston Ridge Park has been compromised by security concerns along the greenbelt. To address these safety concerns, a proposal has been put forward to close off the park entirely, allowing access only through a new pedestrian security gate. This strategic measure aims to create a secure environment for residents and the public, addressing the heightened safety issues associated with the park.

The landscaping strategy for Winston Ridge Park emphasizes the use of large indigenous shade trees, indigenous lawn areas, and waterwise, low-maintenance screening plants. This thoughtful selection not only contributes to the park’s visual appeal but also aligns with sustainable practices, creating a harmonious and eco-friendly urban oasis.

With its upcoming enhancements, Winston Ridge Park will stand as a testament to Balwin Properties’ commitment to community welfare. It will become a vibrant and secure space that fosters recreational activities, connectivity, and environmental consciousness for both residents and visitors alike.
