Sitting on the Docks of Broadway!

Winnipeg, Manitoba 2015

Sitting on the Docks of Broadway!, brings the cottage to Winnipeg for the summer of 2015! The docks provide a place for the citizens of Winnipeg to relax, socialize, perform, eat vendor dogs and enjoy the all too short summer months.

Set within a field of wheat-like grass, two wooden docks sit beneath the shade of the natural umbrellas which are the Elms that march along Broadway. Sitting invitingly atop the docks are whimsical interpretations of that ubiquitous piece of cottage furniture - the Adirondack chair. These bright coloured seats call out for people to come and relax in Winnipeg’s newest public space. Sitting on the Docks of Broadway!, is a place for the City of Winnipeg to use, interact with and love for the summer of 2015.
