New winter pavilion at Carter Green
The City of Carmel will begin construction next week on a new winter pavilion that will serve as a place for families, friends and visitors to Carter Green – during the winter ice-skating season and Carmel Christkindlmarkt – to gather for entertainment on a new stage or to enjoy a covered area for meals and events. The 34-foot x 70-foot open-air pavilion, designed by Forever Redwood, will be constructed on the east end of Carter Green, near the Monon Greenway, and will be built using recycled redwood timber. It will include seating and will hold about 100 people.
Construction is expected to begin on Tuesday, September 7. The project will be completed just in time for the 2021 Christkindlmarkt, which opens Saturday, November 20. The construction project will result in temporarily relocating a few of the vendors to the central part of Carter Green at the Carmel Farmers Market, its final three weekends (September 11, 18 and 25).
