Some discussion of this
online, with some explanation (tl;dr, the grassy landscaping was shifted from Granville Square to this smaller space, called Ordnance Plaza, and Granville Square will get more hard landscaping, which makes sense). So the trees and grass here are probably permanent.
Honestly, I'm not very bothered by this. It does look a little meh, but this is not the main public square in the area, and in person a lot of what's being put in looks to be of a pretty high quality. There's a lot up in the air still, but I'm cautiously optimistic and in fact reasonably certain that the public space aspects will be decent. I'm much more interested in what form the building development takes.
