Portwalk Place represented a strong public/private collaboration and master planning to ‘heal and reconnect’ the downtown fabric.
To create better access to the North End and infuse the area with energy and walkability, Cathartes created a large pedestrian loop connecting three major city streets with the Vaughan Mall walkway and built the largest underground parking facility in the city. The development of Portwalk residences now provide modern living in the heart of the city where none was previously available, while pedestrian friendly streets and hotels have added new restaurants, office space and increased tourism.
