*UPDATE. New Community Orchard booklet posted. New Design Options posted.  Please click on the ‘coloured symbols’ below to take a look.

——————————————————————————————————————

*The other design options shown here are only meant to be understood as ideas at this stage.*  The image below explains the methodology used to create these options; (for example, how community members’ ideas are integrated into the design process).  We hope to attract many more people to participate and get involved in the discussion of a new Community Centre so that we can continue to look at different design ideas and options in the future.

All the design options will be posted and updated here.  Please click on the links below the colourful Design Option Symbol to view the pdf’s.  We would like to encourage everyone to post comments on the website in response to these projects.  Please make sure to comment on the projects you ‘Like’, as this will help us understand which ideas are working best.  Also, don’t hesitate to tell us what else these design options might need? What is missing? What you would like to see?

Community Centre Design Ideas

Heron Park Field HouseAre you interested in discussing ideas for a new Community Centre at Heron Park?  For the past couple of months we have been tinkering with different interactive and participative design processes during the Wednesday Night Program to help generate ideas for a new Community Centre at Heron Park with people of all ages.  We would like to continue to collect as many thoughts, suggestions, examples, needs and desires in attempt to build a collection of ideas that will reflect the neighbourhood’s character and identity.

For more information on how to get involved, please join us on Wednesday nights at the Field House.  Or in the meantime, take a look at the new category in the left column on the website entitled, “New Community Centre Design,” for some recent examples of some of the collaborative work that has already begun.
