WINNIPEG – Manitobans gathered at The Forks to discuss the future of their city Saturday.
A series of photo boards featuring different ideas for the Railside and Parcel Four lands were featured inside Center Court for the public.
The plan is to extend The Forks area to the parking lots across from the Canadian Museum for Human Rights and the gravel lot north on York Avenue in the next 20 years.
The 10 ideas are:
– Residential village at The Forks
– Public art
– Production spaces and storefronts
– Rapid Transit hub at Union Station
– Elevated pedestrian corridor
– Pedestrian promenade
– Target zero
– Community facilities
– Local and independent retail shops
