Description

NW Commons Park (Phase 89)

IBI Group is constructing a playground within the proposed NW Commons which will serve as a
major focal point and amenity within this park space. The overall park design will fit within the
urban context of the development and will incorporate generous plaza and hardscape areas with
ample seating, planting and enhanced lighting fostering a non-traditional park setting compared
to standard suburban development. In addition to emphasizing the urban nature of the
development, this park will also be adjacent to a future urban format school which may use the
park in the future as a shared space for their outdoor programming.
The playground design is meant to fit within this urban context by using contemporary or nontraditional
play equipment that will provide users with a diverse range of play options while
ensuring inclusiveness for children with mobility, acoustical and visual impairments.
The park construction will be organized and managed through a prime landscape contractor who
will be selected in early 2018. As part of this playground tender and award, the chosen
proponent will be required to liaise and coordinate their efforts with the chosen prime landscape
contractor with full construction completion in 2018.
