Concept Design One proposes three sections of Centenary Reserve currently divided by footpaths as distinct activity zones:
  • The central area, currently with play equipment will become the junior aged (toddlers) play area, with new play equipment, natural play such as tree logs and additional garden beds.
  • The grassed section closest to the light-rail is proposed as an exercise and fitness area with landscaping.
  • The large grassed area bordered by Princes and Swallow Streets with picnic facilities, older children’s (school age) play equipment, garden beds and retaining a grassed area for ball games.

Additional landscaping will include predominantly native shrubs and ground covers with some drought tolerant exotic species and additional trees for shade.


Fencing - New fencing will extend around the corner to increase safety for children playing ball-games.


Raised Vegetable Garden beds - Communal veggie & herb garden beds to be installed for a trial period.


Barbecue & Picnic Area - including BBQ, picnic table and benches, drinking fountain and a table-tennis table located in the vicinity of the sub-station.


Mural for Substation - an artist’s mural to be painted on the substation building walls.


Seats and Bins - Additional rubbish beans and seats throughout the reserve.
