North Vancouver: The ‘Lower Lonsdale Cultural Facilities Study’ is a new comprehensive planning study to relocate three of the community’s most important arts, heritage and cultural facilities
Under the guidance of the Arts Office, the ‘Lower Lonsdale Cultural Facilities Study’ was prepared for the City of North Vancouver by the consultant team of Proscenium Architecture & Interiors together with Lydia Marston-Blaauw (Cultural Consultant).
In its most basic terms, the ’Study’ provides a flexible, broad-based planning framework to guide the City’s future planning and decision-making in respect of three key issues:
1) The use, restoration or redevelopment of the PRESENTATION HOUSE ARTS CENTRE site, and the buildings that currently occupy it.
2) Relocation of the key arts and heritage organizations currently based in the PRESENTATION HOUSE ARTS CENTRE (the North Vancouver Museum and Archives, Presentation House Gallery and Presentation House Theatre).
3) The potential for Lower Lonsdale to act as a cultural precinct that will contribute to the liveability and economic vitality of the City.
