Forest Parkette Nears Completion
Lambton Shores is wrapping up the first stage of its downtown Forest parkette, turning two former vacant King Street West lots into a new community hub. Crews have restored walls, poured concrete, and set up water lines, with hydro work still underway. Sod is set for spring planting. The next phase will add benches, gardens, and landscaping as part of ongoing downtown revitalization. Once complete, the space will feature seating, trees, and a small stage for performances.
