Here Are Drawings Of The New Park That Will Replace Old Peterborough County Jail

The old decrepit jail at Peterborough County Courthouse on Water Street is partially being demolished, and the plan is to convert the site into a park.

A peek at the plans from Peterborough's Lett Architects reveals many walls will be left standing, giving the impression of beautiful garden walls.

The County is preserving what it can of the old building, and will "then honour the history of the location with interpretive panels throughout the park that tell the stories of the site."

The park project is slated to begin in early Spring, and it looks impressive and picturesque.
