Renovation of Logan Park
Logan Park is a neighbourhood park for families living in the area. It also serves as a playground for children at the adjacent École des Saints-Anges.
In 2015, École des Saints-Anges was expanded to accommodate a growing number of students. Currently, approximately 400 children attend this school. Because the school's expansion project was built on land occupied by its schoolyard, Logan Park consequently now serves as the school's playground.
The park renovation project will be carried out in partnership with the Centre de services scolaires Marie-Victorin (CSSMV).
Challenges
At the moment, the park has only a few play modules, which are of limited interest to different age groups. Overall, it is inadequately configured and lacks furniture. In addition, the park has a drainage problem that causes significant water accumulation in the spring or after heavy rains and icy surfaces in the winter, making it inaccessible during these periods. Furthermore, its current layout does not allow for optimal use of the park in winter.
Objectives
This renovation project aims to improve the park’s drainage, replace the outdated lighting, reconstruct the paths that are in poor condition and that will be destroyed by the work, build a new tobogganing hill, create a new playground area, add street furniture, replace the sand (which attracts a lot of wasps) with mulch, and plant more trees.
Once completed, the project will allow the park to better serve the needs of the school's children, particularly those aged 0 to 12, and see increased use by local residents.
Renovation plan
The work will primarily be focused on three areas: a new playground, the existing playground, and a tobogganing hill.
