Melrose Park

Melrose Park is situated on the corner of Roseleigh Street and Rose Street in Wooloowin. It’s a pretty all round public space for young families and young adults to hang out at.
There’s a giant playground full of jungle gyms, rope castles for the tille one’s to climb. In addition, the council have also installed a two-​plated electric barbecue for an afternoon out. What’s best is that the area has plenty of green covering to help you avoid getting sunburned.
Connected to the playground is a small and tight skate park with a 4ft quarter pipe, a little fun-​box and a selection of blocks and rails of different height to grind. The park itself is a little hard to manœuvre around and if it gets too busy there’s going to be a long wait for you to get a line on.
Melrose also has an adjoining concrete basketball court and cricket nets. If you’re hungry or thirsty there are shops about 200m up the road.
