This project will reconstruct the oval plaza, lower plaza and sidewalk along Myrtle Avenue and staircases at St. Edwards Street and Willoughby Street and at DeKalb Avenue and Washington Park. The work will include pavement, drainage and handrail reconstruction, and new plantings, water features, lighting, seating, barbecues, and adult fitness equipment.

Project Update: The design completion date has changed. Some of the common reasons why a completion date has changed are: scope and funding are added to a project, design changes due to comments from other government agencies and the public, design changes due to field conditions found during site testing and/or issues with a design consultant.
