Skateboarders of all ages got a chance to have their say on Thursday night on a new skateboard park in Pointe-Claire.
A special meeting was held at Pointe-Claire city hall to show residents the potential design and to get feedback.
The $600,000 project has been in the works since 2013.

The previous Pointe-Claire skatepark was shut down to make way for an indoor pool project back in 2010.
“It’s worth it to get people active, exercising and having fun; who knows, it may get some people off of their iPads,” said Pointe-Claire Mayor John Belvedere.
Once completed, the skatepark will sit next to the Pointe-Claire Aquatic Centre.
Construction will begin in the fall of 2018, and the project will be open to the public by spring 2019.
