Via LOCO BC:
The Punjabi Market is rapidly changing. Is the change for the better or
it is going away from tradition? How do we honour the past, and dream
for the future? We’d love to hear your thoughts and ideas on how we
could shape the future of this important neighbourhood!
The City of Vancouver has hired LOCO BC (Amy Robinson), in partnership with Masala
Consulting (Ajay Puri), DIG360 Consulting (David Ian Gray), and Modus (Rob Barrs), to
complete a project to develop a vision for the future of the Punjabi Market, including the
planning and retail mix considerations to create a vibrant retail centre that considers the
needs of current and future residents, while paying appropriate homage to the area’s
past.
We are seeking the input of key area residents, businesses, community elders, property
owners and leasing agents to help understand how to revitalize the area while sustaining
its historic importance for future generations. We’d like to invite you to one of two
meetings planned for the project where we can learn about the current state of the area,
and you can share your ideas about the future vision for the neighbourhood.
Please join us at one of the following meetings. (Refreshments will be provided. Content will be the same for both meetings.)
