Creating vibrant, welcoming and safe places for people who live, work and play in our Downtown.
Downtown Edmonton is changing. Projects, including the refurbished Legislature Grounds, Ice District and LRT projects, are attracting more development, businesses and people.
As Downtown grows, the size, quality, location and connectivity of public places, including our open spaces, parks and plazas, becomes more important.
The Draft Downtown Public Places Plan has been refined since the last public engagement in November 2018 and is now available for public review.
Draft Downtown Public Places Plan (December 2019) (11.4MB)
The plan includes the following:
The plan identifies 9 visionary and high-level Big Moves for the Downtown public places network. These long-term visions will guide future projects, and related development.
Please note: these Big Moves will require prioritization, funding, detailed planning, additional public review, and council approval in a separate process.
