Stage 2 Landscape Design Option BShape 1903.4.02 20 May 2020
shape landscape | regeneration
Stage 1 results showed wide support for a park with more activities appealing to a wider age range, including adults and teens. New equipment (much of it accessible) expands the childrens play offer, and spaces are made for both active movement (such as a short scooter track), and for young children’s social and fantasy based play.The appeal of the exercise and casual sport area should allow for serious exercise and for intergenerational play. The locations of these two areas differs in the each option. Here, with a location near Gage Street, the childrens play area is more likely to get sun. And some adults may prefer taking their exercise in a less prominent location, away from the street.Both options retain the lockable, high perimeter but new railings near both entrances will improve visibility into the space, and wider gates make access easier. Children’s play remains fenced and gated. The public through route has planting and seating along it - the latter in areas where cigarette smoking would be less intrusive.
