enhance built form and landmarks

Leverage the buildings, landmarks and streetscapes of Chinatown.

One of the hallmarks of vibrant commercial destinations is interesting and symbolic built form. Physical attributes in Chinatown lend to the distinct character and sense of place that projects a special impression. Unique buildings, colourful decorative streetscaping along its main core and compact storefronts with tightly placed signage, all contribute to a district identity that is essential to capitalizing on Chinatown’s cultural mainstreet expression. These attributes can be celebrated, leveraged and built upon as distinct elements in positioning Chinatown as a vibrant commercial destination.
