Colonn-aide


The Colonnade at the Concourse over here in Historic Northeast is getting a facelift. A contractor has begun work on the surface of the 102-year-old structure... above. Below, also slated for change are the floors in the gazeboes at either end... the current floor will be replaced with flagstone. Later on the foliage behind the Colonnade will be trimmed so the view can be opened up and the steps down to Cliff Drive will be built/restored... Good going Parks and Rec.

  1. Any idea when this will be complete? We were planning on doing some family portraits there in mid-September.

  2. Not sure on completion.... but since they're only doing small areas at a time you should be alright.... I own a camera by the way :)

  3. Ha! I was thinking about going out to get a shot of the guys working on it. If I do it, I'll probably steal your "colonn-aide" headline. Hope you don't mind.

  5. Fantastic! I've been hoping they would find a way to restore the view.

  6. David, we plan to utilize your services one day; a friend of ours asked us if she could do it because she's trying to get her business started.
