On a Saturday afternoon, New Brighton Athletic Park captures the neighbourhood's rhythm: families on the fields, teenagers at the New Brighton Skatepark, the unhurried activity of a community that's put down roots. Several schools are close by — covering kids from elementary through junior high — which means drop-off traffic marks the weekday mornings. For groceries and the usual run of errands, residents head toward McKenzie Towne; express routes including Route 151 and Route 117 make the trip quick.
