This park was one of the first areas set aside for parkland in the former municipality of South Vancouver (several different municipalities were amalgamated into the City of Vancouver in 1929). The park was named for William John Brewer, the first reeve of South Vancouver at the time of its incorporation in 1892.
Brewers is a diverse park terraced into three areas. A playing field, tennis and basketball courts, and a grassy area with playground and wading pool are separated by tree-lined walkways and stepped plantings. This is a good place to visit if you want to relax in the shade, play a game of tennis, or push your kids on the swings.
And just maybe, you can imagine the Fresh Prince of Bel Air shooting some b-ball here.
Note: I didn't see any discarded needles near GZ, but I did find one on the sidewalk a few blocks away, so please be careful. If you find a discarded needle, you can call the PHS Mobile Needle Exchange people at 604-657-6561 and they'll come pick it up for disposal ASAP.
