  Centennial plaza 

Centennial Plaza represents the first demonstration permaculture project developed under the Sustainable Clarkdale Initiative. 

Permaculture marries landscaping in a cultural and historic context hence the importance of selecting the Town Complex as our

first project and the design of the central plaza area mirroring the design of Town Park.  We created a garden focused on reducing

water consumption as stewards of our precious water resource evolving into a teaching space with the introduction of interpretive

signage over time.

The project features a rainwater harvesting system of 3 underground cisterns collecting 5,100 gallons of water off the roof of the

Clark Memorial Clubhouse, a series of catchment basins collecting water shed off the parking lot and the Plaza area, an automatic

switch using water from the tanks when available or potable water when the tanks are empty, and then three separate valves

controlling drip irrigation to trees, shrubs, and perennials.  Plants in Centennial Plaza are either native to the Clarkdale area or

adaptive drought-tolerant plants showcasing the beauty of landscaping with this plant palette.  In addition, we’ve created a Legacy

Paver Program providing engraved pavers purchased by members of the Clarkdale community highlighting family relationships,

community service or other ideas folks are interested in showcasing.  In addition, we have opportunities to purchase benches with

memorial bronze plaques to enhance the Plaza experience – two of which are installed now.  Furthermore, there are recognition

opportunities if someone is interested in sponsoring a tree complete with a bronze plaque highlighting the sponsorship.
