The Louis Street Urban Park that is under construction near the intersection of Charlotte and Aylmer Streets downtown is expected to be completed in July 2022, the City of Peterborough announced on Friday.

This new park will create a new multi-purpose space for community gatherings, activities such as a farmers’ market and an outdoor skating rink in the winter.

Construction on the urban park and refrigerated outdoor skating rink started in early 2021.

Due to the need for some underground servicing location work, some construction will need to be done in the spring before the project can be completed.

The creation of an urban park, along with the renewal of Charlotte Street, are key strategies in the City’s Central Area Master Plan. Consultation, planning and design work on the project started in late 2016.
