Mount Pleasant Community Planning Program - Main 2nd to 7th (M27) Commercial/Light Industrial Area

The Community Plan will address the under-developed area on Main Street between 2nd and 7th Avenue ( see Map ). Two M27 Commercial/Light Industrial Area Workshops were held in January and March, 2009. A third workshop on the Main 2nd to 7th area was held on June 14, 2009 in conjunction with the three existing shopping areas in Mount Pleasant - Shopping Areas Workshop #3 (SAW#3).

At the past M27 workshops, participants talked about:

Creating a village like feel with artist’s live/work studios and galleries, and more local-serving shops and services
Making lanes along Main Street more lively by allowing shops to front the lane and encouraging pedestrian and cyclist activity
Creating a community gathering place, plaza, and mews, and adding more affordable rental housing
