Urban space – Parc nautique de Cap-Rouge
Public space
The development begins at Saint-Félix Street and extends for approximately 500 meters to the Jacques-Cartier Beach Park trail, including the Cap-Rouge water park site and Jacques-Cartier Beach Road. This space aims to offer users and local residents a fun, friendly walking experience that is better suited to pedestrians. Inspired by a “seaside” theme, the urban development aims to offer different views of the river. Several elements make this space attractive, such as signage, a rest area with hammocks, and idea boards.
The creation of this new public space is part of Quebec City’s transitional space development project, positioning itself as a renewal and, where appropriate, an enhancement of the experience of these places, emphasizing their close relationship with water. The concept therefore proposes a sensitive and colorful development program, taking the form of a wide range of custom-designed outdoor equipment, graphically inspired by the river enhancement program implemented by Quebec City. The aim is to strengthen the dialogue between users and the natural heritage of the rivers through these original, attractive, and high-quality public spaces.
