Work has been completed on renovations to the Red River College courtyard at the Notre Dame Avenue campus. Along with improvements to the courtyard decking and planting, this project also included repairs to existing stairs and installation of an interior ramp to provide barrier-free access to the courtyard.
Construction of the serpentine fountain wall at the Victoria General Hospital Miracle Garden has begun. When completed the double-sided water wall will provide both visual and auditory solace to patients, visitors, and staff of the hospital. The windows of the Buhler Cancer Centre look out onto the fountain. Click here to learn more about this project.
HTFC Planners Chris and Katie went on a multi-day site visit with over thirty members of Sayisi Dene First Nation to confirm and reconnect with their territory at Little Duck Lake. The trip was conducted as a part of their Relocation Claim which includes an offer of land from the Province of Manitoba and the Government of Canada.
Construction continues at Upper Fort Garry Heritage Park. The limestone blocks and caps are now being installed for the plinths at the south end of the site. These demarcate the approximate locations of the original fort buildings. The foundations for the boardwalk are also in place. Click here to visit the Friends of Upper Fort Garry site.
