Dakota Place Park construction to start next month

The city Parks Department says a bid’s been awarded for Dakota Place Park construction (we published an update just before bids were due last month), and that the work will start December 1st and continue till February. WS Contractor Inc. is to deliver an “exterior package” including “a plaza with integrated artwork, ADA access, site lighting, multiple seating elements,
refurbishing existing historic elements, automated irrigation, and extensive community-provided landscaping.” From the official city webpage for the site (a former substation), here’s the schematic design for the park:

With budgets tightening, it’s good to have some places that can be enjoyed without always having to shell out more money. A great ‘public commons’ space, along with the preservation of an historical building. That’s excellent in my book!!!

Also, I hope the community building here will include public restrooms — with a sufficient amount of open hours!

Sorry, comment time is over.
