The Downtown Renewal program is a massive undertaking by the City to transform how Downtown Guelph looks, feels, and functions, while also preserving its unique cultural heritage. Our renewal efforts will create the foundation for future prosperity, sustainability, and well-being for the next 40 to 50 years.

The City is making significant investments in infrastructure, redevelopment, and transportation, over the next 10 years to make Downtown Guelph an even stronger cultural and civic hub for the City and the wider area.

Projects

The Downtown Renewal program includes several multi-year projects and initiatives. Each of these projects supports the same goal of creating a revitalized and transformed Downtown.
