I believe it is the only Provincial Park in Canada that is inside a City.
Fish Creek is a protected natural area. When I say develop Nose Hill, I don't mean make another Fish Creek, I mean concrete, pavement, green sod, manicured gardens, plant a few thousand trees, outdoor amphitheater, etc Limited only by an urban planners imagination.

How would this be paid for? Sell 25% of it to a developer to build another suburb. Best land left in the city should go for a gigillion dollars
