attractive, vibrant and prosperous business area that reflects the
unique multicultural identity of the Queen Mary Park and Central
McDougall communities.
Vision
We see “The North Edge” as:

Shoppers and residents have safe places to congregate and interact.
The community has diversified housing and high quality mixed use
development.
- Serving all of the needs
of local residents including daily shopping, transportation and other
amenities.
- An attractive community with public
green spaces, trees, and well-maintained buildings. Storefronts are
well kept and contribute to the character of the area.

surrounding communities via transit, multi-use trails, and major
roads.

an important destination for shopping, business and cultural events.
The variety of unique specialty shops attracts and ample street
parking encourages tourists and residents come to the North Edge.

vibrant and culturally diverse community.
- Showcasing the population diversity of the area in the diverse shops and restaurants, the public art, the
eclectic building and culture. Year round events and festivals
maintain and enhance the identity of the BRZ.
