A revived and expanded garden will grace the front of Providence Academy in Vancouver. The 148-year-old building is owned by The Historic Trust, which submitted plans to the City of Vancouver for the garden area, as well as parking lot improvements.

“Having a redesigned garden space will make it overall more accessible to the public and also improve the aesthetics associated with the academy,” said Holly Chamberlain, historian with The Historic Trust.
