The town of Powerview-Pine Falls, located along the shores of Winnipeg River, was originally two towns developed to serve a pulp and paper mill company. With the closure of the mill and merging of Powerview and Pine Falls, issues arose regarding poverty, segregation and poor pedestrian circulation. The goal of this practicum is to make the community a more pleasant place to live by enhancing the outdoor environment. It explores opportunities to better the lives of permanent residents by developing a system of landscape and pedestrian corridors that acknowledge the town’s history and celebrate the beauty and diversity of the boreal shield, while enhancing opportunities for tourism.
