Spirit Square Maffeo Sutton Park

Spirit Square

The "Spirit Square" is located near the Cliff Street entrance to Maffeo Sutton park, and covers approximately one third of the park site.

It includes a large multipurpose plaza for special events, enhanced park access, a spirit eagle feature, and improved routes for pedestrians, cyclists, the physically challenged, as well as service and emergency vehicles.

A covered structure is the focus of the plaza and features interpretive information about the history of the site and downtown. One of the special touches to the new area is the paving stones that indicated the original shoreline of the area.

Construction within the park will continue for the rest of the month. An additional forty seven parking stalls will be added along with some other finishing work.

For more information about the Spirit Square and Maffeo Sutton Park, please contact City of Nanaimo, Parks, Recreation and Culture at 250 756 5200.
