It's definitely an improvement in a lot of ways. Before, the brick paths were all uneven and you'd regularly find needles and trash littered about, but it did have a lot more nature to embrace. I'm sure once the trees mature it'll look much better, but that'll take at least a decade. The old park offered more shade for people, shrubs to break wind, more flowers and grass for pollinators, birds and insects. The park now is a pretty good place for socializing or having your lunch, I just think the landscape architecture is a bit weak and for a park, it ends up alienating nature itself. I'm not sure who designed the project...I wish they went with someone like Claude Cormier + Associés who have an amazing portfolio.
