"The Hamilton Road Area is the best place to live in because it has so much to offer to young and old. If is the most friendly and enjoyable region in London to make a family feel welcome and involved. We are proud to be a part of such a great community and to be members of the Hamilton Road Community Association."
- Shirley Draper - Local Resident -

The City of London and the St. Julien Park Revitalization Committee (who are members of the Community) raised funds for the trees, bushes, meadow and park benches. Please visit the boulders in the park with the donation plaques showing all of our foundations and organizations who have donated to the Hamilton Road area.

With the assistance of local schools, and the Upper Thames Conservation Authority for planting and maintaining the trees and bushes, did a fantastic job.

We thank all the foundations, organizations, and the City of London, for their donations and time in helping to build the park for the community to enjoy.

What a Great Project!
