For those who have walked through Portage Place you will note that it is pretty empty. The IMAX is no more, many of the stores have left and it is a shell of what it once was. The real estate division of True North (owners of the Winnipeg Jets and Manitoba Moose) in conjunction with the Manitoba Government unveiled their plan/vision for the redevelopment of this space in downtown Winnipeg.
Today’s press conference:
Jim Ludlow, who is President of True North Real Estate Development, said there will be four anchor zones:
Zone 1: Comprehensive health centre for excellence.
Zone 2: Public Green spaces.
Zone 3: Neighbourhood services, culture and arts.
Zone 4: Mixture of affordable and family housing.
While this isn’t directly related to the Jets it is all tied into the revitalization of the downtown where folks spend 41 nights a year attending Jets games and 36 nights a year attending Moose games as well as for various concerts.
