Harbour Green Park
Vancouver, BC
2002
Harbour Green is a 6.5 acre park that presents both the natural and man-made history of the city of Vancouver. The illustrative elements range from a granite and concrete escarpment wall to mark the natural grade change between downtown core and English Bay, and a series of earth mounds which represent the ocean and the edge of harbour prior to development. Amenities include a parterre, plaza, café, and a recreational spray pool, all connected by a multi-purpose seawall.
