What’s the difference between the Imagine Centennial project and the Cultural Centre?
Imagine Centennial is the name of the broader revitalization project for Centennial Park and the Lord Reading Yacht Club site. The future Cultural Centre is the first phase of this transformation. Additional elements will follow, including outdoor event zones and play areas.
Will the park be reduced to make room for the Centre?
No, on the contrary. The project will increase the total area of the park by 48% through the integration of the Centennial Marina property. The location of the Cultural Centre and its parking lot on the already mineralized part of the marina will allow for the complete removal of vehicular access from Centennial Park. The park will thus be enhanced and renaturalized, with new trails, a lookout, landscaping that promotes biodiversity, outdoor activity areas, and improved access to the waterfront.
When will the Centre open?
The construction call for tenders is expected in fall 2025, with groundbreaking scheduled for spring 2026. The Centre is expected to open by summer 2028.
