Portage Avenue Downtown Winnipeg gets a facelift
Downtown Winnipeg undergoes a dramatic Portage Avenue makeover as eight lanes are reduced to six and sidewalks widen from the University of Winnipeg to Portage and Main. City leaders tout the project to impress Pan American Games visitors, while critics warn it deepens downtown emptiness and neglects pedestrians and cyclists. The Manitoba Chamber of Commerce announces moving its office to the Curry Building to help revitalize the area.
