Winter, spring, summer or fall, The Forks is a must for a stunning array of dining experiences, incomparable shopping, a constantly changing slate of entertainment and events, and many unique attractions that encompass the site’s natural, historic and man-made features.

Description

The Forks North Portage Partnership (FNPP) invites designers to submit visionary proposals to transform Israel Asper Way from a four-lane roadway into a unique public space, commensurate with the new Railside development plan. Railside is planned to become a vibrant mixed-use residential development located at The Forks in Winnipeg, Manitoba. This new public space will be known as the Railside Promenade. The goal of this competition is to incite innovative ideas and practical solutions for the urban design

of the pedestrian promenade to be showcased to the public to generate support and enthusiasm for what is possible along Israel Asper Way.

PEDESTRIAN ORIENTED

This new public space will be known as the Railside Promenade. The goal of this competition is to incite innovative ideas and practical solutions for the urban design of the pedestrian promenade to be showcased to the public to generate support and enthusiasm for what is possible along Israel Asper Way.

The Forks

Located on Treaty 1 Lands, at the junction of the Assiniboine and Red rivers, The Forks has been a meeting place for over 6,000 years. Beginning as a trading location and campsite for early Indigenous peoples, The Forks has remained a locus of activity
for European fur traders, Métis bu alo hunters, Scottish settlers, riverboat workers, railway pioneers and tens of thousands of immigrants, over the centuries. Today, The Forks is a vibrant public destination where people gather for celebrations, recreation and to meet one another. The site encompasses some of the City’s and Nation’s best public open spaces, world-class programming and site management, and a number of major recreational and cultural amenities. 

“...The Forks shall be developed as a ‘Meeting Place,’ a special and distinct, all-season gathering and recreational place at the junction of the Red and Assiniboine Rivers, through a mixed-use approach including recreation, historical and cultural, residential and institutional and supportive commercial uses.”

— Excerpt from The Forks Renewal Corporation’s Mission Statement (1987)

Railside at The Forks 

Railside at The Forks will be a new kind of development and
a major step in the evolution of The Forks. Railside represents the rst ever opportunity for residential development at the site, including a 20-year strategy to turn three bleak surface parking lots into a dynamic mixed-use neighbourhood and to transform Israel Asper Way into an engaging pedestrian promenade. Remaining true to The Forks’ founding vision, this signi cant mixed-use residential project will build on the site’s abundant cultural and recreational assets, elevating this historic “meeting place” into Winnipeg’s most iconic neighbourhood. Further to this, the pedestrian promenade at Israel Asper Way will become a welcoming place and gateway into a diverse and resilient neighbourhood, Railside at The Forks. It will become known as

‘Railside Promenade’.
