Fort Collin’s Old Town Square is one of the most desired and frequented spots in our city for locals and tourists alike. This unique atmosphere provides entertainment, shopping, and dining for anyone and everyone. Because Old Town is such a vital asset to Fort Collins, the Downtown Development Authority has decided to renovate The Square. This particular area of Old Town Fort Collins has received substantial wear and tear over the last 30 years creating much reason to renovate and modernize the highly trafficked area.
The existing stage will be reconstructed and will include rear storage. The layout will consist of a pedestrian circulation zone including; an enlarged children’s’ play area, interactive water features, a fireplace feature, central art, and sign as well as additional flower beds. Project costs are expected to be $2.86 million and the majority of the renovation should be complete in August 2015 in time for the annual NewWestFest.
Various activities will be held during the renovation and shops and businesses will continue to operate as normal. To learn more about the renovation as well as events taking place in the Square, visit http://www.downtownfortcollins.org/renovation.html.
