Mechanicsburg Center Square
To bring greater commerce and activity to downtown businesses in Mechanicsburg, the downtown business community engaged Derck & Edson to design three civic spaces in the heart of downtown. Our design process engaged citizens, municipal and business leaders in the design of an outdoor amphitheater, plaza, green space, sitting garden and multipurpose event spaces to create places for informal gatherings and special events for the Mechanicsburg community. Our three phased design includes signage, street trees, streetscape, lighting, new sidewalks, a stage, historical markers, bike facilities as well as cost estimates. We prepared a series of illustrations to assist the community in promotion of the design and fund raising.
