Parks are tremendously desirable spaces, at the same time both tame and free, visible and imagined. In general, going to the park is something everyone enjoys. Why, then, is Montréal’s huge Olympic Park regarded as such a sad place, when it takes only a few moments spent there for the visitor to want to invent exciting new possibilities for it. It is true that the Olympic Park’s past has made it the subject of clichés and skepti- cism rather than inspiring hope, and is still an obstacle to public reflection on what it can become.
