The Towne Square Renovation Project is progressing. Crews are installing concrete on the west side of the park and will complete the Sleepy Bee patio soon. Workers will be completing electrical and HVAC work in the restroom and storage facility in the coming weeks. Landscaping is also underway and will involve the installation of Silva Cells, a soil containment system for ideal tree health in urban environments. The Bicentennial Veterans Memorial is also taking shape, with hard surfaces in place for the return of the statues.

Demolition work continues at Towne Square. The band shell has been torn down and a transformer at the site has been disabled for safety reasons during demolition. This means that the street lights along Hunt Road will not be working for the next few months.

A Towne Square parking update: The temporary parking at the corner of Cooper Road and Kenwood Road is now open! Also, City Council approved the purchase of a property at 4906 Cooper Road, which will be used for temporary parking during construction and potential future development.
All businesses at Towne Square are open and accessible during construction. Since the Salon at Towne Place is only accessible on the park side, we have had some questions about how to get there. There are two easy ways! Check out the video in the comments of the Facebook post here.

Pardon our dust! The much-anticipated Towne Square Renovation Project will be getting underway in the next few weeks in downtown Blue Ash. Alpha Construction has been tapped to complete the project.
The first thing you will notice is a new connector between the parking lots for Park Pour and Sleepy Bee. This will make it easier for motorists to enter, exit, and park during construction.
You can view a map of all of the available free parking near Towne Square here (the numbers on the map indicate the number of available parking spots in each location). All of the lots are within a five-minute walk to Towne Square businesses. To accommodate customers, lots closest to the businesses will be designated 2-hour parking.
In addition, the former Hosbrook property at Kenwood/Cooper corner will be turned into free parking during the construction.
You will also soon notice temporary fencing being placed around the perimeter of the project.
See the award-winning designs for the project here and watch a video overview here.
