I'm not sure what is proposed will fit as well with the surrounding buildings as what was there, but it was definitely showing its age and needed major work.

I read this and the thought just occurred to me, we actually don't have to look very far for inspiration for something better here

Just outside of Edmonton, the striking Diwan Pavilion is a feat of Islamic architecture - Macleans.ca
The sweeping $5.5-million structure stands out, even in a garden modelled after paradise

^From your pictures one month ago, and all the pipes and such still above ground I wonder if this will be done for 2025 and not open in 2024?

GEC Architecture
Construction is underway on the Government Centre North Plaza revitalization at the Alberta Legislature Grounds in Edmonton. Built in the 1970s, our team collaborated with Government of Alberta and Janet Rosenberg & Studio to redesign the North Plaza to preserve the existing and historic mature tree canopy, improve the pedestrian promenade and terraced seating areas, rebuild the reflecting pool and ornamental dome fountain, and transform the terraced wading pools into three interconnected, interactive spray parks.
Inspired by Alberta’s natural landforms and climate regions, the design will include native plantings from the Prairies and granite boulders mined from mountains made of Rundle stone.
