## Green Space Inventory

Five parks are mapped within Fairview Estates, providing distributed green space across the area. The inventory includes Glenforest Park, Sybyl Court Park, Plateau Crescent Park, Randall Avenue Park and Willett Street Park. Each location is identified by name in the source dataset without additional descriptive attributes.

These five sites represent the complete set of park points attributed to the neighbourhood in the current mapping. No dog parks or other specialized recreational facilities are included in this count. The presence of multiple small parks suggests a dispersed layout rather than a single large central green space for residents. Sources:

## City market context

From the Halifax market article, 22 September 2026:

Halifax's Months of Inventory climbed from 4.9 in January 2026 to 8 in August, marking a clear shift into buyer-favourable conditions. Sellers now face longer listing times and greater price negotiation pressure, while buyers gain leverage in a market with more options. Halifax's housing market shifted from balanced conditions in early 2026 to a strong buyer's market by August, with Months of Inventory rising from 4.9 to 8. This shift reflects slowing sales against growing inventory, giving buyers more negotiating power while sellers face longer listing times.
