It was once a set for the television series Wayward Pines but now, a green space at Princeton Avenue and Trafalgar Street on Coquitlam’s Burke Mountain will be transformed into a park.
Construction began on the 0.7-acre property Monday and when it is completed later this year, it will include a park entry feature, a play area for children of all ages, built-in seating around the playground and a path system. There will also be an informal grass picnic area.
The work is expected to cost the city $906,500, according to a detailed budget and design that was passed unanimously by city council in May.
The area will be closed off to the public while the work is taking place.
