Waterfront Development Plan Design Concepts
Friday, April 26, 2024
The City of Sault Ste. Marie, Tourism Sault Ste. Marie and Destination Northern Ontario are creating a Waterfront Design Plan spanning from Bondar Marina to the Canadian Bushplane Heritage Centre. This plan will guide the development of the waterfront and transform it into a world-class destination.
Phase 1 of the project, Creating the Vision, had over 900 participants provide input into the vision and share ideas for programming, events, and amenities to steer the future development of the waterfront.
Phase 2 of the project includes the unveiling of Design Concepts for the focal points and showcasing the exciting transformation. The Design Concepts in this phase of the project were generated using public input from Phase 1.
The community is invited to share their thoughts on the draft Design Concepts for the waterfront in several ways including:
-
Completing the online survey at www.saultstemarie.ca/waterfront
-
Attending a public open house on May 1 from 4:30 – 7 p.m. in the lobby of the Civic Centre, 99 Foster Drive.
Feedback on the Design Concepts will be accepted until
May 24 with a final Waterfront Design Plan anticipated by early summer 2024. For more information and to review the Phase 1 “What We Heard” document, visit
