Daintry Park in west end of Cobourg up for sale
Town of Cobourg has issued a press release saying the chunk of land described as 604 Daintry Crescent is on the market. Located directly north of the railway lines that run through town, the land has not been developed even as trees in front of the nice homes along the street have matured. Just shy of a 1,000 square metres, local residents were promised an accessorized park initially, but not much beyond grass cutting has occurred.
