Statement of Qualifications Consultant Services, Repentance Park Fountain and Improvements
The Baton Rouge Riverfront Master Plan sparked the importance of redesigning Repentance Park. The preliminary concepts done in the 2006 Riverfront Master Plan calls for the following: A Café Pavilion at the southeast corner located at the same elevation as the existing Governmental Plaza. The Pavilion would be surrounded by a bosque of trees to provide plenty of shade for patrons to enjoy. This type of venue will energize the space and provide a much needed venue for pedestrians visiting the city/river center campus. Another main attraction devised from the master plan is an interactive fountain. This fountain will create a great family friendly atmosphere, while successfully engaging children and some adults with the space. The final component addressed in the master plan is connectivity. Because connectivity is a main component of the space Plan Baton Rouge 2 was tasked to take a more detailed approach.
