B-Line Nodes and Corridors Land Use Study Main Street, King Street and Queenston Road between McMaster University and Eastgate Square

The City of Hamilton B-Line Nodes and Corridors Planning Team recently held a series of design work shops or charrettes with citizens and local architects to create concepts for possible future development along the B-Line corridor. These conceptual designs for buildings and public areas were created for six locations along the corridor with six different groups and six different architects. All six concepts can now be viewed on the City of Hamilton web site at:

http://www.hamilton.ca/nodesandcorridors

You are invited and encouraged to visit the website to view these visions for the future of the corridor and to provide your comments.

Your comments will inform new policies on uses, building heights, densities and urban design elements along the corridor. They will help staff answer questions such as: What should new development along the B-line corridor look like and how should it relate to existing neigbourhoods?

Please provide your comments via the form on the website or by e-mail at nodesandcorridors@hamilton.ca by Monday October 3rd, 2011.

Please note that these are conceptual designs only which are intended to illustrate ideas and explore design issues for possible types of development in the future. They are to be used as tools to invoke discussion and are not in any way to be seen as actual development proposals or approved City policy.

Thank you to all of those who volunteered their time to develop these design concepts! Staff Contacts:
