About

Sackville Playground at 420 King Street East in Toronto's Corktown neighborhood is a small community playground that serves one of the city's up-and-coming family-friendly areas. The playground equipment includes climbers, slides, and swings sized for toddlers through early elementary age. There's limited green space beyond the playground itself.

Corktown is one of Toronto's oldest neighborhoods and has seen significant family-oriented development in recent years. The surrounding area has a growing selection of restaurants, cafes, and shops along King Street East and Queen Street East. The Distillery District is a short walk southeast, making Sackville Playground a convenient pit stop during a broader Corktown-Distillery exploration.

The park has no washroom facilities. TTC streetcar route 504 (King) runs along King Street. This is a quick-stop playground — 45 minutes to an hour is typical.
