Happy City St. John's, Newfoundland and Labrador
Downtown St. John's Strategy
This Strategy has been prepared for the City of St. John’s and its stakeholders to provide direction for the future development of the Downtown.
In June 2001, a group of experts presented the City with an extensive and detailed report about the future of St. John's. A vision for the city was proposed, as well as a roadmap to achieve the vision.
As stated in their report, "Economic development can co-exist with heritage and can be mutually complementary, with sound city planning, a nurturing of investor confidence and a knowledgeable heritage renovation sector. Strong, committed and visible municipal leadership is essential."
This is required and interesting reading for anyone concerned with the future of St. John's and the options we have to make it a bright one.
