About the Walker Place Redevelopment landscaping project

ecoDynamics SA Landscaping proudly partnered with the Town of Gawler and principal contractor Blu-Built to bring the Walker Place Redevelopment award-winning vision to life. Together, we transformed Walker Place into a vibrant, pedestrian-friendly plaza that now offers improved accessibility, welcoming green spaces, upgraded amenities, and redefined vehicle and parking access.

Scope of work

  • 780m2 of dry-laid footpaths with brass edging
  • 430m2 wet laid parking bays
  • 180m2 wet laid cobblestone road
  • Crazy paved slate swale drain
  • Irrigation
  • Garden beds.

Our landscaping approach ensured every element was built to last, with careful material selection and construction methods tailored for heavy-use urban areas. The combination of heritage charm with modern functionality has created a central hub that reflects the community’s identity and future aspirations.
