Jean Sibelius Park Update

I wonder if Jean Sibelius Park is getting the overflow of park-seeking neighbours because Vermont Square is closed? But I digress... I wanted to give you a wee Jean Sibelius Park update:
"In the next week or so, we will be closing the Kendal/ Bernard temporary access to the playground. This is to allow the contractor to restore the south lawn area of the senior playground. You may have noticed that the City Parks Horticulture group has already installed temporary fencing. This is to deter people from walking through the planting beds.
We will temporarily remove a fence panel on the north side of the tot lot (on Bernard). This will act as the new 'temporary' playground access point. Once the restoration is complete and the seed sufficiently germinated (about a month) we will remove the hoarding fencing and allow access to the south side of the senior playground.
We will be posting a sign (at the Kendal/ Bernard intersection) of this access closure when the 'south lawn protective fencing' is installed.
A short update on construction at the Park:
The site works are moving along nicely at Sibelius Square. The following is a status of recent events:

• Installed the site furnishings (picnic tables, benches).
• Completed rough grading operations
• Working on fine grading operations
• Irrigation system is currently being installed.
• Working on interiors of building.
  
  We are waiting for the weather to warm up before the walls are sandblasted and the anti graffiti sealant is applied. Sod should be available in the coming weeks. Seeding in the dense shade area (under the tress) should occur next week (weather permitting.)"
  
  It's great to pass by Sibelius Square and see the progress, week-by-week. So much planning and hard work has gone into it! A big THANK YOU to those people who volunteer their time to make our neighbourhoods more lovely for all of us.
  Cheers,
  Vanessa
