  • Abstract : This publication shows how the public and private sectors have joined together in new and innovative ways, not only to develop new parks and to more efficiently fund and manage parks, but also to restore historical significant but run-down existing parks. This book contains examples of different types of partnerships throughout the country from highly structured relationships around large parks in major cities to more informal partnerships around inner-city neighbourhood parks.
