Abstract
This research investigated the impact of community parks on social interaction in master-planned communities in Sydney during the COVID-19 pandemic. Sixteen residents were interviewed in two communities. Three themes influencing social interactions were identified: (1) quality of park spaces, (2) pedestrian integration of parks, and (3) pedestrian connectivity with surroundings. The findings offer implications for promoting social wellbeing and community sustainability.
