Fun fact about Richmond...
Do you know how old Minoru Lakes Park is?
The Minoru Lakes were constructed more than 50 years ago in the 1970s, according to the City of Richmond.
However, over the years, the lake's infrastructure started deteriorating, including the pump, liner and banks, causing water leakage and murky water.
In 2023, the park was officially reopened with upgrades to the pond, trees, shrubs, and a new waterfall.
