Look At The Concept Plans For A Downtown Public Square/Urban Park
/In an effort to stimulate creativity, capture opportunity and direct priority, the Central Area Master Plan hopes to update the "historic heart of the community". One of the focuses is the Louis Street Parking Lot, which is municipally owned and has relatively low utilization.
The City hopes to revitalize this space by creating a Public Square which will still be used for Farmers' Markets and also include a stage, an outdoor skating rink in the winter, and that could host other events such as Ribfest and seasonal festivals.
EDA Collaborative Inc has provided concepts of what the Downtown Urban Park would look like at a meeting at the Peterborough Library last night (May 9th).
If you have feedback for the final draft of the preliminary design, send your comments to Brian Buchardt, Planner, Urban Design, before May 17th.
