Big Upgrade Plans For Reversing Falls

Although the former coast guard site is top priority for waterfront redevelopment, some big plans are being laid out for recreation by Reversing Falls.

GM for Saint John Development Kent MacIntyre tells CHSJ news they hope to have new walkways, an interpretive centre and extending harbour passage by at least 4 kilometers.


It's all a part of a master 10 year, $35 million dollar project funded by all 3 levels of government back in 2010.


MacIntyre adds he always gets e-mails from tourists asking two key questions about Harbour Passage. One is how long it is, and the other is if they're bike rentals. He'd like to see it extends as far as Rockwood Park in the coming years.
