Absolutely need recycling! Ever been there on a weekend? A very popular family destination, dogs and all.

Suggest moving stage events to the street. Close George Street north of Lakeshore and part of Lakeshore to add a stage and increase the capacity for larger events. Keep the deciduous trees for shade or consider adding shade sails for shade. Otherwise, the area will be a heat island and not popular.
In spring, fall and winter the sun can shine in! -
It is my preferred option as a Facelift, since there is so much about the current format that works.

Absolutely REAL grass is a keeper. My kids, now adults, loved playing there. Kids playing is great: they burn off energy outside while providing the entertainment for those watching from the seating!

I agree that trees are what draws people (Lots of urban planning evidence for this) - restful beauty & shade. If large stature trees will not thrive because the area is overtop the parking garage, there are lots of native medium & small stature trees and shrubs that can fulfill the same purpose: Serviceberry being one.
The water feature doesn't have to be big- I recall the small water fountain on the east wall of this square. (Is it still there?) It was wildly popular because it attracted the kids, created a "splash factor" yet didn't take up a lot of room or require huge infrastructure.
Personally, I think a splashpad would be unnecessary - sometimes an "unstructured" playplace has better play value.
