Description:
Clyde View Park is the first new park to be built in the West of
Scotland for many years.
Featuring fountains, paths, cycleways, play areas, picnic areas,
artwork, green space and a riverside walkway, it has been designed
to encourage natural wildlife, and flora and fauna.
Its name was chosen following a competition for local
residents.
The park is a major asset, benefiting local residents and the
growing number of people living and working at Braehead and Renfrew
Riverside.
Renfrew Riverside is a partnership of public and private sector
organisations which is focused on the regeneration of the River
Clyde from Braehead to Renfrew Town Centre. The project
is transforming a total of 185 acres of brownfield land with around
2000 homes, leisure facilities (including the new Xscape indoor
ski facility with restaurants, cinema and speciality retail),
offices, infrastructure improvements and a wide range of public
facilities including the new public park, riverside walkway and
cycleways.
The park was formally opened in June 2005.
