Main Street parklet touted as place to bring people together
Parklets are coming to the PNC Plaza in downtown Fort Wayne.
The public spaces known as parklets are designed to support downtown businesses and encourage community engagement, a Fort Wayne Downtown Improvement District news release stated.
The space will span a portion of the western edge of the PNC building parking lot on Main Street next to Sweets on Main. The area is traditionally where “Santa and His Reindeer” is displayed.
The area will include outdoor dining tables and chairs, a life-size chessboard, and a mural installation provided by Art This Way. The parklet, which will be open during summer and fall, is designed to connect access points throughout the city from The Landing and Promenade Park to Embassy Theatre and Parkview Field.
