Mapped Amenity Inventory

Mount Cashel contains eleven mapped amenity points distributed across four distinct categories. The inventory includes one school, three parks, five transit stops, and two recreation facilities within the neighbourhood boundary. These points represent the current spatial distribution of local infrastructure as recorded in the source data.

The specific locations include Mary Queen of Peace Elementary School and three named parks. Transit access is indicated by five stop points along Torbay Road and MacDonald Drive. This configuration provides a baseline for understanding the physical layout of services available to residents in this area of St. John's without implying usage rates.

Recreation Program Context

City-wide recreation programs are listed at Southlands Community Centre, which serves the broader St. John's area. Four spring programs are currently identified, including arts and crafts, fitness, life skills, and social leisure activities. These offerings target specific age groups such as adults over fifty and children in grades four to six.

The presence of these programs indicates active community engagement at the municipal level. However, the mapping does not confirm whether Mount Cashel residents specifically utilize these facilities or if they fall within a direct service catchment. The data establishes the existence of these opportunities but does not link them directly to neighbourhood-level participation or demand patterns.
