Removed Elements of Alphington Park - Hannah Lewi

Alphington Park new gardens

A new ornate garden was designed for the northern perimeter of Alphington Park, in 2011-2012. The design caused some controversy with a number of local residents, and some elements of the six themed garden areas that each represent different aspects of Australian cultural and natural landscapes were modified. The skate ramp-seat painted red, yellow and black was removed due to some expressions of public dissatisfaction, and a series of totem poles with aboriginal motifs created by local school children and an artist were relocated to the playground area.
