In case anyone has some good ideas for improving the river park…
Planning Workshop for a Linear Park Along the Sir John A. Macdonald Parkway
Hello,
The National Capital Commission (NCC) is exploring the possibility of creating a linear shoreline park on lands between Preston Street and Carling Avenue to enhance the green space along the Sir John A. Macdonald Parkway. We would like to invite a representative from your organization to participate in a planning workshop to explore this idea. The workshop will be held on May 27.
The purpose of the workshop is to consider various ways to transform sections of the Ottawa River shoreline corridor into a park. The aim is to make this corridor a space that people visit more often and that is more accessible to the public for a variety of uses, while also ensuring unimpeded access to the river for the neighbouring communities.
This workshop is part of the development of the Capital Urban Lands Master Plan and Parkways Policy, and follows on public consultations that were held in March. Participants will have an opportunity to contribute toward the development of this idea by helping the NCC to define a vision and principles that will guide further consideration of the park, as well as the activities and uses that would be suitable for the space, considering its importance to the Capital.
The workshop will take place as follows.
Date: Tuesday, May 27, 2014, 7 pm to 9:30 pm
Location: NCC Headquarters, 40 Elgin Street, 5th Floor, Capital Urbanism Lab/Studio
Agenda
Introduction 7 pm to 7:15 pm
Workshop 7:15 pm to 8:30 pm
Plenary 8:30 pm to 9:30 pm
Please confirm your attendance before May 23. Contact Jocelyne Moncion, Public and Community Relations Officer, at 613β239β5678, ext.Β 5106, or jocelyne.moncion@ncc-ccn.ca.

Il fait suite aux consultations publiques tenues en mars dernier. Les participants auront lβoccasion de contribuer Γ lβΓ©volution de cette idΓ©e en aidant la CCN Γ dΓ©finir une vision et des principes qui guideront la poursuite de la rΓ©flexion sur le parc linΓ©aire et les activitΓ©s et usages quβil serait pertinent dβy retrouver, considΓ©rant son importance pour la capitale.
