Peel Plaza Takes Next Step Forward

Peel Plaza is closer to reality after the City's Planning Advisory Committee granted a variance on the future Provincial Courthouse. P.A.C. approved a reduction in on-site parking from 230 stalls to 28 with the remaining 202 stalls to be provided by a new parking structure built on Carleton Street.

One of the Project Architect's Gregory Murdock says Peel Plaza is a "Triple P"-a public private partnership. If work on the parking structure begins after the justice complex, the province would have to come back to P.A.C. to ensure that parking is provided somewhere.
