Ambitious waterfront blueprint unveiled

Archiseek / Canada / News / 2006 / January 27

About 175 people attended an open house unveiling millions of dollars’ worth of infrastructure designed to make the city’s riverfront an arts and cultural mecca. The open house ran from 4 p.m. to 8 p.m. at the Gold Rush Inn. The event saw the unveiling of blueprints for the Yukon Arts and Heritage Village riverfront development. The proposed development area is bordered by First Avenue and the Yukon River and runs between Main and Strickland Streets. City planning manager Lesley Cabott said the proposal seemed to be well-received by the visitors. The plans represent a major component of the riverfront development that has been taking place in the city over the last six to eight years, she said.
