The neighbors of North Corktown continually express their interest in keeping the green open space available to all.
With this knowledge the NCNA formed the Community Land Trust (CLT) to protect open spaces.

North Corktown Commons
The North Corktown Commons is a pocket park on Ash and Cochrane. This community funded park is perfect for community gatherings and for neighbors to relax. There is a garden, tables, benches, and a bulletin board sign neighbors can utilize. Feel free to enjoy the park as a place to relax, read, and eat. You can also plan meetings and community events in the space.

Fish Park
This pocket park was creatied during the revitalization efforts of the Greater Corktown Development Corporation in the mid 2000s. At Cochrane and Ash St., this park is an example of how many other corners in the city could be activated as spaces the community can enjoy. The "Trout Perch" sculpture was created by Tom Rudd and the "Chess"sculpture was created by Graem Whyte.
