I was even more delighted with the outcome of their effort. Since its incorporation as a city 122 years ago, Winnipeg has been particularly prolific as a publisher (I should know; I've read most of that work). Until now, no one had studied this body of work. This "municipal autopsy," if you please, poked, prodded and thoroughly examined the many reports, studies and inquiries the City of Winnipeg has commissioned and received. What is most remarkable about this operation is the fact that it was completed in such a short period of time. I congratulate Nancy Klos, Christian Douchant and Dave Jopling on this document review for the City of Winnipeg, and I encourage everyone to read both the review and the documents listed within its pages. Bernie Wolfe v ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS We would like to acknowledge the contributions of various individuals and organizations in the preparation of this document and to extend our sincere gratitude for their co-operation and participation in this endeavour: to the staff of Manitoba Urban Affairs, Manitoba Culture, Heritage and Citizenship, Historic Resources Branch, Winnipeg Land and Development Services, Winnipeg Parks and Recreation, Winnipeg Community Services, Winnipeg Transit, Heritage Winnipeg, Social Planning Council of Winnipeg, Manitoba Historical Society, Downtown BIZ, The Forks North Portage Partnership, I.D.G. Stanley Inc., and the International Institute for Sustainable Development for their assistance in locating reports to include in this document and for their willingness to allow their respective collections to be searched; to Pat Moses, Manitoba Urban Affairs, for her support of the IUS Library, thereby facilitating the preparation of such a document; to Graham Hart and Gord Courage, Winnipeg Land and Development Services, for all of their assistance in uncovering and searching the former Planning Library resources and providing advice and regular work space; to Mary Ann Beavis, Institute of Urban Studies, for her patience and invaluable assistance in preparing this document for publication; to Tom Carter, Institute of Urban Studies, for his support of this document and work towards its promotion among the community; to Bernie Wolfe, Heritage Winnipeg, for his much appreciated encouragement and enthusiasm over the project; and to the Institute of Urban Studies, the City of Winnipeg, Manitoba Urban Affairs and the Winnipeg Real Estate Board for their generous financial support of our efforts. Without the above support and assistance, the preparation and publication of this document could not have been accomplished. Responsibility for errors and omissions, however, remain ours. vii INTRODUCTION Urban planning remains one of the biggest challenges and opportunities for cities and citizens alike, with broad implications for living conditions and the surrounding environment. The City of Winnipeg has been confronted by many ofthe same planning concerns faced by other North American cities, although there have been a number of innovative and sometimes unique local planning efforts. Among the more important concerns faced by this city are a growing suburban area and an increasingly deserted downtown, neighbourhood decay and an aging inner core housing stock, increasing poverty and community distress, housing affordabilty and the need to preserve the city's inventory of heritage buildings and satisfy transportation demands. In the post-war period, a variety of reports and studies have been produced by public and private sources Qncluding academic and student researchers) related to urban planning in Winnipeg. They focus on topics such as community renewal and revitalization, downtown development, heritage districts, housing, land use, parks, the Winnipeg region/fringe and transportation. During this period, planning moved from a technical land use function to a greater focus on community based participation and concern for the environment. This growing mass of documents has much to offer to professional planners, government decision-makers, students and community groups both in the city and elsewhere. As present and future planning initiatives are debated, these documents are a valuable legacy. A variety of planning-related literature reviews relevant to Winnipeg have appeared. However, only a handful of publications have attempted to create a comprehensive bibliography or listing of documents that pertain to urban planning in Winnipeg. This publication is the most recent attempt to create a Winnipeg planning bibliography. It recognizes the scope of urban planning and the vast quantity of documents related to urban planning that exist. Each document represents a contribution to the larger picture of planning in Winnipeg and to varying degrees, each provides important information and insights. This publication's goal is to identify reports and other literature over the last three decades, although there was some attempt to locate documents dating back almost 50 years to the immediate post-war period. It is intended for use by government departments, planning practitioners/professionals, community groups, academics, students and the general public. As it builds on past efforts, this publication also opens the door for similar future efforts. METHODOLOGY In practical terms, the creation of a comprehensive urban planning bibliography required a number of specific decisions relating to content, sources to consult and technique. From the start, there was a consensus that many different fields within planning must be included, as well as Winnipeg-specific initiatives like the Core Area Initiative and its spinoffs. There was also agreement that documents and other literature beyond the 1960s should not be overlooked, although the focus remained on those documents produced during the time period covering the Metropolitan Corporation of Greater Winnipeg and Unicity. There was little problem in viii selecting sources except In drawing the line on where to stop. Many other government departments and community groups have library collections that contain still more documents on planning In Winnipeg. Additional efforts should be made to include such collections in future lists. The presence of automated library catalogue systems at several of the larger local collections was particularly helpful in the preparation of this bibliography. The majority of the other institutions did not have comparable automated systems or resource staff. In some cases, collections were searched manually. Those collections used to compile this bibliography are listed below, along with codes used throughout the publication to identify the location of each entry, with the exception of magazine

  • Framing a Complete Streets Checklist for Downtown Historic Districts and Character Neighbourhoods
    Framing a Complete Streets Checklist for Downtown Historic Districts and Character Neighbourhoods: A Case Study of the Warehouse District, Winnipeg, Manitoba. by Pawanpreet Gill A Practicum submitted to the Faculty of Graduate Studies of The University of Manitoba In partial fulfillment of the requirements of the degree of MASTER OF CITY PLANNING Department of City Planning University of Manitoba Winnipeg Copyright © 2014 by Pawanpreet Gill Abstract This Major Degree Project explores the concept of “complete streets” and the framing of an appropriate “complete streets” checklist for historic districts and character neighbourhoods in downtown contexts, attempting to learn especially from the case of Winnipeg’s Warehouse District Neighbourhood. A “complete streets” checklist is considered to include a combination of infrastructure and urban design considerations, such as sidewalks, bike lanes, intersections, transit stops, curb extensions, travel lane widths, and parking needs. It proceeds from the premise that if an individual street or system of streets is ‘complete’, individuals will be more likely to reduce the time spent using automobiles, and increase the time expended on walking, biking, or using other transit alternatives, while making travel on the streets safer and more enjoyable for all users. The MDP examines the current street-related infrastructure and uses within the Warehouse District Neighbourhood of Downtown Winnipeg and discusses the relevance of current or recent City of Winnipeg plans and proposals. Taking the form of a practicum, the research sought to inform and engage local planners, engineers and public officials regarding a “complete streets” approach to their work – primarily in terms of the recommended framing of a complete streets checklist as well as recommendations for future area improvements in the Warehouse District Neighbourhood, demonstrating the usefulness of the checklist.

  • Selecting Selinger: the 2009 Leadership Race and the Future of NDP Conventions in Manitoba∗
    Selecting Selinger: The 2009 Leadership Race and the Future of NDP Conventions in Manitoba∗ Jared J. Wesley, University of Manitoba [email protected] Paper for Presentation at The Annual Meeting of the Canadian Political Science Association Concordia University, Montreal June 2010 Abstract In a delegated convention held in October, 2009, the Manitoba New Democratic Party (NDP) selected former Finance Minister Greg Selinger to replace Canada's longest-serving and most popular premier, Gary Doer. Official appeals filed by the victor’s chief rival, Steve Ashton, and persistent criticism of the process in the media raised significant concerns over the method by which the new premier was selected. These complaints proved a fleeting fixation of the media, and have not harmed the NDP’s popularity or affected the smooth transition of the premiership from Doer to Selinger. Yet, questions persist as to whether the 2009 leadership race marked the last delegated convention in the history of the Manitoba New Democratic Party. This paper examines the 2009 leadership race in the context of contests past, analyzing the list of criticisms directed at the process. Grounding its findings in the comments of delegates to the 2009 Convention, it concludes with a series of probable choices for the party, as it begins the process of considering reforms to its leadership selection process. Leading contenders for adoption include a pure one-member, one-vote system and a modified version similar to that of the federal NDP. ∗ Funding for the 2009 Manitoba NDP Convention Study was provided by the Faculty of Arts, Duff Roblin Professorship, and Department of Political Studies at the University of Manitoba, and the Canada Research Chair in Indigenous Politics and Governance.

  • 510 Main Street Winnipeg City Hall
    510 MAIN STREET WINNIPEG CITY HALL City of Winnipeg Historical Buildings Committee Researcher: M. Peterson April 2014 510 MAIN STREET – WINNIPEG CITY HALL Winnipeg’s first City Hall was officially opened in March 1876, the brick structure costing nearly $40,000 to complete (Plate 1), one of only a few substantial structures in the City that had incorporated two-and-a-half years earlier.1 But the structure had been built over a poorly filled Brown’s Creek. The fill could not hold the weight of the building and cracks began to appear shortly after it opened. An addition was completed in the winter of 1882-1883 but it too was poorly built. The entire structure had to be propped up because of these structural problems, ultimately being torn down in April 1883.2 The second City Hall, the famous “Gingerbread” building, was erected amid controversy between 1884 and 1886. Debate over location, construction materials, architect fees and other problems kept the building in the local papers throughout its construction. However, the completed structure was well-built and served the civic government and the citizens of Winnipeg for nearly 80 years (Plates 2 and 3).3 Three years later the City Market Building was completed to the west of City Hall adding a major retail element to the area (Plate 4). In 1913, a City of Winnipeg committee recommended replacing this City Hall, a competition was held and a winner from Regina, Saskatchewan, architects Clemesha and Portnall, was declared (Plate 5). But global economic downturn and the escalation of conflict leading to World War I halted any major construction plans and this new city hall building was never built.

Established by the Roman Catholic Church in 1818, this area is home to many people who are themselves the descendants of the earliest French settlers. Old St Boniface revels in French Canadian culture which is still strong here. It is visible on street signs and audible in local shops and banks. As you stroll along St. Boniface’s heavily treed streets you’ll spot the names of many historical figures, such as religious leaders Provencher and Taché, and fur trader La Vérendrye. And while St. Boniface is rooted in history, it continues to grow. The new Esplanade Riel has encouraged greater discovery of the area, and several new businesses have already opened near the bridge, including a romantic restaurant and a gelateria.
