Community Invited to Share their Vision for Downtown

Nov 7, 2024

The City of Greater Sudbury is inviting community members to participate in a visioning workshop to help shape the future of downtown Sudbury. The workshop is being held as part of the Downtown Sudbury Master Plan review and will take place Monday, November 18 from 6 to 8:30 p.m. at Place des Arts.

The interactive event will feature:

  • Presentation: Learn about the successes of the 2012 Downtown Sudbury Master Plan, recent developments and why it's time for an update.
  • Visioning Activity: Participate in engaging discussions to refine the vision for downtown Sudbury’s future.
  • Mapping Activity: Offer detailed feedback on specific downtown areas, focusing on current conditions and potential improvements.

The review of the Downtown Master Plan (DMP) is currently in the second of four phases with completion expected in late 2025. Originally approved by Council in 2012, the DMP is being updated to ensure it continues to meet the community’s evolving needs. Many of the initiatives identified in the plan, including the McEwen School of Architecture and Place des Arts, have already been successfully completed, while other projects, like the Cultural Hub and Event Centre, remain underway.
