WINNIPEG — A new three-season washroom built out of an old shipping container has opened at St. Vital Park.
The washroom is located between the playground and summer picnic shelter and runs 48-feet long.
Peter Sampson Architectural Studio designed the $300,000 project, which is well-lit and meets modern accessibility standards. The city says the new washroom replaces the old cinderblock washroom building that was built in the 1960s.
“St. Vital Park is a neighbourhood gem that invites residents to enjoy nature, get active, and visit with family and friends,” said St. Vital Councillor Brian Mayes. “The new three-season washroom facilities feature a creative and aesthetically-pleasing design that will also provide a much-needed service to park users.”
