Winnipeg, MB - Winnipeggers are invited to attend a public open house about the Grant Park campus feasibility study.
The City of Winnipeg is seeking community input on improving recreation and leisure options on land located west of Grant Park Shopping Centre as part of a planning process. The current site, bounded by Grant Avenue to the north and Taylor Avenue to the south, is home to several well-used facilities including the Pan Am Pool, the Charles A. Barbour Indoor Arena, and outdoor soccer fields.
The City is looking to upgrade and rejuvenate the site with the overall goal of creating a connected, vibrant community campus offering year-round active living and leisure options for all ages. A modernized indoor arena, open green spaces, community gardens and a new public library are among the amenities the City is exploring.
The public is invited to attend the open house to provide feedback on proposed plans and facilities in the area. Public input gathered as part of this process will lead to a detailed Grant Park Community Campus Plan that will guide short-term and long-term renewal of the area in a way that supports the needs and aspirations of families, residents, students and seniors.
