THE newly upgraded Supreme Court Gardens have officially reopened. “Another great example of the City of Perth and the state government combining expertise and resources, which has resulted in a complete makeover and has reinvigorated the Supreme Court Gardens,” says lord mayor Lisa Scaffidi.

But it wasn’t all plain sailing, with the Barnett government unhappy with a council delay in November 2015 to fiddle with the plan. Scheduled to wrap up in April this year, the $3.1million state-funded project has seen formal garden entrances installed, a new pedestrian path, a dunny upgrade and the memorials, sundial and heritage gates have been restored.
