You can now review the Moore Square Master Plan over at the City's website. (over in the right column under Draft Moore Square Master Plan Report you can Download the Draft in PDF form) The site plan (seen above) has essentially been refined to add more detail to where exact elements that were alluded to in previous iterations are now located. They better make plans for a bunch of cigarette dispensers for all the smokers that are going to flock to the new space to avoid being ticketed.

Looks great. That pdf is excellent.
How about some elevations of this homeless campground/playground? I’d love to see it from this vantage point while seated in a F-18 but I’m too old to join the military now. The person from the State Historic Preservation Office must have slept through all of the meetings.
When are they actually going to break ground on this?
Looks like Marbles is taking over Moore Square…
the homeless people will love this!
I, for one, HOPE THEY DO.
See those benches on page 13 of the PDF? Homeless proof! Now they’ll have to sleep in the new sheltered, heated restrooms!
Has anyone been to “Tir Na Dog” recently? ![]()
The design and development phase along with construction documents process is unfunded. Huh.
“* Public input is included as part of the design/development and construction documents process; however, these two processes are currently unfunded.”
I think it will be very nice once it’s complete. Hopefully they give jobs to people that need them to complete the program.
The designer successfully incorporates many wishes from the public forums while protecting those great oak trees. I hope we don’t lose any elements due to cost; the plan as designed is great! Amongst other features, I particularly like the expanded lawn and the altered topography.
