ICE District Block IJ | ?m | ?s | ICE District Prop. | Next Architecture

Visited tonight. Decent amount of kids and families. Slides were fun and unique. Some of the extra elements were good. Craftsmanship of some of the ice and snow was awesome. Maze was very basic and too small.

Maze being small was a bit confusing too when all the branding was really around the maze, vs a “winter fun space” (which is really more what it was). Probably needs to be 3-4x the maze to have good traction next year I think. But overall a win for our DT I’d say.

^nice idea, but if the admission prices are the same as what they charged for the winter version, I don't see it being much of a sell. unfortunate, but the OEG i$ greedy.

When they had the event at Kingsway Mall last year, admission was free, and a "Ride All Day Pass" was $35 + service charge for early bird ($45 + service charge on site). You could also purchase tickets for individual rides.

We'll see if they jack up the price this year.
 

“For Land Just East of Rogers Place .”
Awesome that University of Manitoba is now involved. Not sure if NAIOP still posts the previous proposals from the U of A and U of C but it’s some extremely impressive and in-depth stuff. Especially considering it’s coming from students who only get two months to work on it.
