From Concept to Reality

Picture This On Granite was proud to provide its expertise and services for the Granite Civic Granite Walk of Fame, in Brantford, Ontario, Canada.

In 2008, Brantford City Council approved the design and construction of a new Walk of Fame monument structure and feature park space, to pay tribute to Brantford’s distinguished citizens.

With the assistance of MMM Group, a design concept and construction drawings for a new monument structure and park space has been completed, based on the principles established by a former Task Force comprised of representatives from the Parks, Recreation, and Water Front Advisory Committee, the Tourism Advisory Committee, and the Heritage Committee, as well as, staff from Planning, Parks and Recreation, and Tourism.

The new Walk of Fame civic monument included a re-design of Armories Gore Park located at the intersections of Brant Avenue, Dalhousie, and Colborne Streets. The surrounding ‘Waterwise’ garden features perennial plantings.
