Memorial Block Redevelopment Open House

Description

From the City of Burlington:

On Wednesday September 18, 2024, from 5:00 PM to 7:30 PM, an Open House public event has been scheduled at the Fletcher Free Library (235 College St) for the Memorial Block redevelopment project.

At this Open House guests will have the opportunity to engage with residents, local businesses, city staff and project partners to discuss the framework for the community's vision for the proposed redevelopment of the Memorial Block as the part of the extensive due diligence work outlined in the March 2024 Pre-Development Agreement. 

Memorial Auditorium was a public auditorium and civic center in the heart of downtown Burlington built in 1927 to honor World War I veterans. It was closed in 2016 due to structural safety concerns as a result of many decades of deferred maintenance. Memorial Auditorium sits on the southeast corner of what is known by many as the "Gateway Block" as it serves as the entrance to the City's Designated Downtown for those travelling west on Main Street.
