Plaza plan would add stage, pavilion, themed play area and mixed‑use buildings to downtown
Summary
Terracon presented a program of features for the Community Block: event stage and terraced lawn, multi‑use pavilion for markets, food‑truck court, visitor center, potential hotel, mixed‑use buildings, and a family adventure play area with dinosaur elements; many features are contingent on future funding and phasing.
The conceptual site program lays out a mix of civic, commercial and public‑space elements intended to support daily use and events. Key proposed features include a visitor center with an optional café, gateway features, an event stage with a terraced concert lawn, a multi‑use pavilion designed for year‑round markets and community events, a designated food truck court with utility hookups, and a restaurant with indoor‑outdoor seating.
Designers also proposed flexible lawn space that could accommodate a future ice ribbon, a vertical landmark or lookout tower, mixed‑use buildings with ground‑floor activation and upper‑story residential or office space, and a potential hotel. A family‑oriented adventure play and splash area with dinosaur‑themed elements was included in the concept to aim at year‑round family programming.
