Bim'bimba Park at Gainsborough Greens Multi Award Winning Park

The five hectare green space is described as one of the most feature-packed in the region, including play, sporting, entertainment and fitness facilities, with multi zones to engage people of all ages and abilities.  

Meaning 'Place of the Soldier Bird', Bim'bimba Park also includes a basketball half-court, skate ramps, outdoor table tennis, grassed kick-about spaces, shaded barbeque and picnic areas, an outdoor amphitheatre and three kilometres of walk and cycle paths that connect to a 14 kilometre network throughout the community. 

Mr Penklis said Mirvac's community-led approach to the design was in-line with its philosophy for the broader Gainsborough Greens masterplan. 

"We are thrilled to be recognised for our community engagement, because it is a large part of what makes the Gainsborough Greens community so special," he said. 

"We are always interested to hear how residents believe we can make our community even better and this feedback has been the cornerstone of the design of numerous projects throughout Gainsborough Greens, including all seven of our parks and other public spaces. 

"We also have a dedicated community engagement team, Enriching Communities Pimpama, which hosts a regular calendar of events and activities, from coffee catch-ups to Christmas light competitions and movie nights, to ensure our residents have plenty of opportunities to connect and get to know their neighbours." 

Gainsborough Greens was not the only Pimpama community in the spotlight at the UDIA Queensland Awards, with neighbouring over 50s lifestyle community, Halcyon Green, also taking out two awards, after being named the State's best Master Planned Development and best Seniors Living Development. 

"It is a huge achievement for two neighbouring communities to take out four of the 21 awards presented and shows the quality of development happening in the Gold Coast's fast growing northern corridor," said Mr Penklis.
