The parkette design will mimic the design of the arbour structure at the fountain area on the opposite corner of Jones&King E. The parkette will feature a new clock tower, open green space, a circular walkway with benches, and a mixture of trees and shrubs. The project is expected to cost $400 000 and construction is expected to begin in spring 2013.
