Market Plaza

Inspire was engaged by the City of Lake Wales to help reimagine Market Plaza to be the social center piece in the heart of downtown. Currently the plaza is a main pedestrian thoroughfare between East Park Avenue and East Stuart Avenue and includes the historic clock tower, brick pavers with donor’s names, outdoor café space, and parking. Through a collaborative design process with the City, the final design will be a key component within the downtown core with a large open lawn space for events, additional and update café seating for restaurants on the plaza, a garden seating area with relocated donation brick paving, new wayfinding signage, and iconic swing trellis features that blend in with the local architecture. Market Plaza will be the downtown’s premier destination for relaxation and events.
