From the Niagara Falls Review:
Plans for the Niagara Convention and Civic Centre are taking shape, but it will be later this year before anyone knows how the building will look.
“Now that we have a game plan in place, a lot of people are curious to see what the convention centre will look like,” said Dragan Matovic, project director for the $92-million centre to be built on Stanley Avenue, about 500 metres west of the Horseshoe Falls.
“Unfortunately, I don’t have any information. Sorry to tease you,” he said at a luncheon Wednesday hosted by the Niagara Falls Canada Chamber of Commerce.
But the “design-build procurement process” being used for the convention centre means private companies that will bid on the project will be responsible for the design, said Matovic.
Another interesting quote from the article:
Tim Parker, the general manager for Ripley’s Entertainment, said more off-season business is the “driving force” in his company’s decision to build a $70-million aquarium.
Are the committed now to build the aquarium?!
