New Gaukel Street Entrance to Victoria Park
In early February 2006, the City of Kitchener issued a tender to begin construction of the new Gaukel Street entrance to Victoria Park. Construction is expected to take place between April and October.

The new Victoria Park entrance will include a complete streetscape upgrade on Gaukel Street from King Street to Joseph Street, with new lighting, stamped concrete, and other features. The new entrance to the park itself will include stone masonry gates, walkways, new lighting, flower gardens, a pond complete with waterfalls, and a sculpture created by a local artist.
