该项目广场位于新政府大厦前，广场沿着河岸建立，使运河与大厦间的部分成为了一块休闲的绿色开放空间。在夏天，人们可以来这里享受美丽的水面风景，而冬天，这里就变成了一个天然的溜冰场。逐渐地，该广场成为了人口聚集区，各种市场在这里设立，各种大型活动也都在这里举行。为了使运河与广场的联系显得更加紧密，设计团队特意设计了一系列的小公园，坡道，过桥，还有镀锌观景通道来供人们欣赏和使用。运河公园的设计也是以娱乐休闲为目的的，设计团队利用该运河周围美丽的风景和悠久的历史，使得来这里的人们能够尽情放松。另外，公园内的护柱设计为停车场区域划明了界限，整个公园看起来落落有致，开放统一，混凝土地面和绿草茵茵的坡道设计使该区域使人从整体视觉上感觉很舒适，自然，人们坐在这里可以简单地聊聊天，或者静下心来看一场音乐会。整个场地的灯光设施，引导标志，行人通道，座椅安排，雕塑元素还有植栽区域的设计与安排都非常完善，这可能都是该广场受到群众如此喜爱的原因吧。

The Studio developed a civic plaza in front of the new city hall building with fluid connections to a flexible green open space along the canal. The plaza, created on a limited budget, features a tranquil water feature that transforms into an outdoor ice rink during the winter. The space functions as a community gathering area in the heart of the downtown core and is used for markets and city events. In order to strengthen connections to the canal, the Studio developed a series of gardens, ramps, bridges, and viewing platforms in the form of galvanized walkways that hover over the former historic walls of the canal. The design of the canal park land ties strategically into a broader recreation network running along the scenic and historic canal. Bollards are used to define a lane for cars and allow the landscape to read as an accessible and unified open urban space. A concrete plateau and sloped grass plane help to visually define and organize the space and can be also used as a stage and seating area for small concerts and events. Lighting, signage, walkways, seating, sculptural elements and a planting strategy have all contributed to making this a welcoming and dynamic public space and civic landscape.
