A new four-hectare park will open this weekend in AVID Property Group’s (AVID) Harmony community
in Palmview – designed to encourage active living across the community with one kilometre of
pedestrian and cycle circuits, kick and throw lawns with soccer goals and static gym equipment.

The newest Linear Park, the second for the community, promotes an active lifestyle, offering residents
a range of innovative exercise and play equipment including elevated play towers, tunnel mounds, bird
nest swings, spinners and a slide.

AVID General Manager Queensland Anthony Demiris said the park opening was an important
milestone for Harmony and a key part of the developer’s broader master plan to create a community
which fostered connection and healthy living habits.

“We are so pleased to open the newest Linear Park in Harmony’s Serenity neighbourhood, stretching
a total of 450m long and bringing four local parks to the community,” Mr Demiris said.

“The new park is equivalent in size to six and a half international football fields and is both the physical
and figurative heart of the neighbourhood, with many residents expected to visit it every day to play,
exercise and relax.”

The unique configuration and design of Harmony ensures that all its residents live within 250 metres of
a park and that each neighbourhood is connected to the development’s 60 kilometre network of
pedestrian paths and cycleways.

“We know outdoor living is a catalyst for creating a healthy and active lifestyle to which the addition of
this new park solidifies Harmony’s position as a healthy connected community,” Mr Demiris said.

“Whether you want to enjoy a picnic, take the dog for a walk or you just want to have a game of soccer
with your friends, Harmony’s new Linear Park will be the go-to destination for local families.”

Harmony resident and mum of three, Holly Roberts, has lived in Harmony for the past two years and
looks forward to attending the park opening with her family.

“We already spend our weekends and school holidays walking or cycling to the local Harmony parks
to meet with our neighbours or celebrate birthdays and special occasions, so we are really looking
forward to this new park opening,” Ms Roberts said.

“What will be great about this park is the mix of junior play areas for the little kids and more advanced
facilities that allow us to bring both our younger and older kids to the same spot, rather than having to
travel to different parks.

“There are people who travel a long way to visit these green spaces here in Harmony and we feel
lucky to have these beautiful parks available to us right on our doorstep.”

Harmony’s newest Linear Park Opening Event will be a “Family Fit Festival” featuring fitness classes
including Yoga, Pilates and Boot camp, kids’ laser tag, live music, food trucks, juice bikes, roving
entertainers and facepainting.

AVID has now delivered 31 hectares of greenspace in Harmony, making great headway on the
developers plans to provide more than 130 hectares of open space, or 174 football fields, which is
equivalent to 40 per cent of the masterplanned community.
