Phase 2 engagement - concept design results

Thank you to everyone that got involved during the second round of public engagement. Nearly 200 surveys were submitted that will provide us with valuable feedback for the concept design. The results for the second round of engagement will be posted online when it has been collated and analysed.

This proposal envisions the new park at Main Street and 7th Avenue as an adaptable, exciting park that is welcoming and comfortable for both people and wildlife. The proposed design creates a strong connection to the intersection and a sculpted edge that provides a range of experiences. Managing a nearly three metre elevation change on site, the design utilizes built forms and topography with diverse plantings to shape a range of spaces, from intimate spaces to open areas flexible for events. A variety of seating elements are incorporated to allow people to gather and linger in groups or individually. Playful seating terraces and a canopy structure are juxtaposed against rich plantings with numerous trees to create a dynamic environment that embraces seasonal change.
