The park is structured as two distinct levels; as a broad lawn sloping north toward Glenmore Road, overlooked by an upper seating terrace access via new pathways and entry thresholds. Sandstone remnant from the demolished hospital buildings were stockpiled on site. Turf worked with Joy Sing and Alf Peris of the State Government Stone program to ensure heritage and construction considerations were properly addressed. Stone elements are incorporated into the new sandstone walls forming a montage of old and new. The higher quality pieces are displayed on the lawn with interpretive information describing their source. Other large broken pieces lie as ruins in the planted embankment. Broken sandstone paving provide thresholds at key entry points and junctions in the pedestrian pathway system.
