Project FeedbackCommunity (Survey + Consultations)Design Review Panel SAC Meeting #7 - May 28, 2020

● The adventurous, all-ages design for the River Valley Park North play area is exciting, appreciative of the wildness that has been kept there

● The park design, promontory and the MT-35 Commemoration elements, are exciting and appropriate for the site context

● Wayfinding and interpretive signage are creatively thought out. This is a good opportunity to incorporate Indigenous history or culture, and information about natural species and habitats.

● Concern about management of sediment after it is dredged from the river, especially the smell if it is stock piled on land

● Find a role for public art within the design ● Develop signage and way-finding ● Create a family of materials and furnishings ● Consider future conditions in and around

the park, such as the catalyst building and urban massing

● Future-proof the design to accommodate fluctuating lake levels

● Study event programming at the central lawn

● Develop park operations and programming ● Choreograph winter programming and

character ● Consider unique engagement opportunities

between park visitors and site ecology ● Create an inventive, bio-diverse, and

daring planting strategy ● Strongly integrate remnants of industrial

and natural heritage ● Provide renderings of the Esplanade ● Develop the character of Destination Play

● Feeling immersed in nature comes from ability to wander while discovering new views or un-manicured vegetation

● Variation of landscape and ecology was noted as “nice to have”

● People expressed a desire for clear information about access points (lighting and signage indicating formal paths)

● Emphasis on views and variety of landscape types

● Create views of Inner Harbour and City ● All season use support winter programming ● Facilitate public water activities and

connections/access to the water ● Integrate history through preserving local

heritage and culture (adaptive reuse, art)

Play valueThe Chain Path consists of carefully mounted running bars which swing harmonically under load. This interesting linking element is a challenge for skills and concentration and is a relaxation for tired feet. The Chain Path is also available as access equipment for slopes.

Fundamental characteristics- The use of wood provides for a special

tactile experience.- incentive for playing: round timbers

suspended on chains- movement: balancing, swinging,

walking, coordination

Recommended- for children from 4 years- for public playgrounds playgrounds situated near houses children‘s homes school playgrounds outdoor swimming pools leisure areas for those with special

needs

Barrier-free- special exercise experience- with a carer

Play valueThe equipment „Climbing Ropes“ is particularly suited to make use of height changes in the landscape. Hills and dales are structured and at the same time, ground and plant are protected from play activities. The simple, but clever rope construction, makes climbing activities in both directions a playful challenge. Aluminium swages on the walking ropes allow for a firm step despite all difficul-ties. The Climbing Ropes represent an attracting basic element of activity trails. The rope length can vary and various connecting elements can be combined as the planning requires. Parallel running climbing ropes, as shown, are particularly attractive.

Fundamental characteristics- unique and original- designed as a plant protecting climbing

element with a strong attraction to children

- incentive for playing: suspended ropes with aluminium swages

- movement: balance, coordination

Suitable- for children from 6 years- for public playgrounds leisure areas youth centres school playgrounds

WT 109 Pole ClimbersThematic Narrative

In revising the pole climbers, we further explore the dynamics of the forest and the perfect imperfection of natural tree forms. Varying heights, repeatable patterns, and the role of dynamic balance and tension are important aspects of the play experience. Larger steps carved to better match the curves and nobs of the trees will provide a range of climbing heights. The shortest height offers two branc-hing legs and an easier climbing experience. The medium height offers two branching legs and increases the challenge providing opportunity for personal growth and exploration as children test their strength and boundaries. The largest pole climbers add a third branching leg on some elements and provide awe in their size and curiosity and enticement as children wonder what it would be like if they could climb to the lofty peak.

Updated Technical Specifications. (All options are priced in groups of Twenty (20) on Form F2) » Pole Climbers: Twenty (20) Size 1 (Two branches each). Black locust. Galvanized steel pole base to above grade cement footing. 3.5 m

pole height, 61 cm climbing height, 25cm pole diameter. » Pole Climbers: Twenty (20) Size 2 (Two branches each). Black locust. Galvanized steel pole base to above grade cement footing. 4.2 m

pole height, 1m climbing height, 28cm pole diameter. » Pole Climbers: Twenty (20) Size 3 (8 with three branches each and 12 with two branches). Black locust. Galvanized steel pole base to

above grade cement footing. 6.1 m pole height, no climbing height, 51cm pole diameter.

Relevant Safety Code Considerations » Minimum Protective Surfacing Zone required is 1.8 meters. » Protective Surfacing Zone is permitted to overlap another zone assuming the other zone is permitted to overlap. » Grouped pole climbers can be placed together with 14-30 cm separation between them to form one single “structure.” » Individual poles or grouped poles comply with Annex H provided a 1.5 wide path routed between the features and an acceptable

surface material. » Place surfacing by other vendor must have adequate critical height value to meet or exceed fall height. » Tops of poles will be adequately angled or rounded to prevent a having a “play surface.”

Adaptively Managed AssetsOverview: Anticipating Plant Growth Over Time

2.1

Fast FactsDynamic

. The dynamic landscape types are: Mixed Forest, Grove, Glade, and Hedgerow.

. The groundplane in the dynamic areas is dominated by grasses that will limit erosion and reduce weed invasion during early conditions.

. As shade develops, shade-tolerant species will spread and additional shade-tolerant perennials will need to be added.

. Certain species of woody plants will thrive in early conditions and others will be more successful as the forest matures.

. When shaded and sheltered conditions occur, tolerant woody species can be added.

Fixed . The fixed landscape types are: Lawn and Garden

(Entry Garden, Play Garden and DOLA Garden) . The groundplane consists of species that prefer full

sun mixed with species that tolerate sun to part shade.

. As shade develops, shade-tolerant species will spread and additional shade-tolerant perennials should be added to fill in bare patches.



Dynamic Ecological Benefits . The groundplane of the dynamic landscape types

provide food and cover for animals and insects while the forest grows. These landscapes will primarily transition to a forest community following a natural progression. The grass-dominated initial groundplane will persist in sunny edges and gaps and will continue to provide habitat value.

This section provides guidance on how to adaptively manage the upland vegetation communities as plants grow. The character of the planting will evolve as the park matures, but not all landscape types will change equally. The landscape types are divided into two types: dynamic and fixed. The dynamic areas are designed to evolve in accordance with natural processes. Fixed areas will also change, but their overall character will remain consistent. Refer to Fig X.X for Dynamic vs Fixed areas.

. Fixed landscape types will contribute to the overall forest frame. The mixture of native and non-native species in the Garden landscape type will contribute to a diversity of fruiting and flowering times.

Maintenance DriversDynamic

. The dynamic landscape types require adaptive management to respond to changing site conditions.

. Adaptive management begins with monitoring the performance of vegetation and responding to changes in order to guide the landscape to a desired state.

. The following sections provide guidance on the adaptive management of the dynamic landscape types.

Fixed . The fixed landscape types also require adaptive

management in order to respond to changing site conditions, unexpected situations, and human use.

. While recognizing that these landscapes will evolve, the overall character of the lawn and garden landscape types will remain constant.

. Maintaining these areas in a more fixed manner is labor intensive, and as a result these landscape types require the most maintenance.

. Though written for the dynamic landscape types, some of the information in the following sections applies to the fixed types as well.

. The maintenance required by the fixed landscape types aligns with standard horticultural practices.
