Raise the Hammer

From the Rapid Transit E-newsletter, June 2011:

Help shape the future of the B-Line Corridor along Queenston, King and Main Streets from Eastgate to McMaster

DESIGN WORKSHOP PUBLIC MEETINGS:

The City of Hamilton is undertaking a land use planning process along the BLine Corridor from McMaster to Eastgate Square in conjunction with planning, engineering and design studies for a Light Rail Transit (LRT) system. Citizens and local architects will be working together over the next few weeks to create visions of possible future development along the B-Line corridor.

They will be developing six conceptual designs for buildings and public areas at six select locations along the corridor. You are invited to view the designs, learn about how they relate to the surrounding neighbourhood and to provide comments.
