Phase 1 & 2 of the Public Engagement Reports are available below:
Creating a Shared Ecosystemfor a Historic Landmark in Downtown Winnipeg
The ambitious plan involves creating a diverse campus that embraces the idea of (1) a modern and inclusive healthcare centre, (2) public greenspaces, (3) neighbourhood services including cultural and arts features, and (4) affordable and multifamily housing with access to large footprint grocery.
Our Commitment to Reconciliation
Portage Place Shopping Centre is located on Treaty One lands, the original territories of the Anishinaabe, Cree, Oji-Cree, Dakota, Lakota, Dene peoples, and the homeland of the Red River Métis. We proudly acknowledge our role in the many relationships that make up our home and commit to a spirit of reconciliation for the future.
Public Engagement Process
Phase 2 of the public engagement initiative started in late 2023, as initially planned, immediately following the completion of Phase 1 in the fall of the same year. The Phase 1 Engagement Report was issued in December 2023 following the completion of the Phase 1 consultation.
Phase 2 - Second Iteration Conceptual Program
The future phases of engagement are planned, with additional sessions intended to be scheduled following the issuance of the Phase 2 report and post-purchase of the property.
While no further public engagement will occur before the purchase, consultations will take place where appropriate and necessary, including on topics such as public washrooms and community resources.
Design teams are expected to conduct necessary engagement to further inform and refine the proposed design concept.
Further information regarding these community reach-outs will be provided to the public and the Working Group. It’s important to note that this process is ongoing as needed and remains unfinished.
