The construction works are currently planned for the first half of 2026.

Hornsby Shire Council is excited to be upgrading the park’s play area in accordance with Council’s adopted Play Plan. This proposed works includes the replacement of old equipment with a nautical adventure theme in honor of Captain Edward Robert Amor, who the park is named after.

Our exciting draft Concept Plan for Amor Street Park, Asquith proposes the following items:

• A local scale playground* upgrade with a landscape theme that shares the story of Captain Edward Robert Amor, told through the nature play trail with stepping stones, logs, bridge and rain/rock garden. The natural rock feature will be kept for the community to explore as part of the trail.
• Removal of the existing play equipment, and replacement with a tower play equipment, a three-seat swing set and a boat themed rocker.
• Seating opportunities including new picnic setting park shelter and sandstone logs for informal seating.
• Play area with accessible concrete paths.
• Tree planting for shade and screening.

The construction works is planned for the first half of 2026.
