Old Town South Redevelopment Project

The Old Town South Redevelopment area includes the land north of 57 Avenue, south of Brickyard Place and 55 Avenue, and west of the PERC Building that currently contains the Glenn Hall Centennial Arena, the outdoor pool and spray park, the ball diamonds and outdoor track, and Stony Plain Central School, École La Trinité, and Westview School. 

The Old Town Community Plan (OTCP) is the Town's first and only area redevelopment plan. It provides a cohesive vision, policy framework, and implementation plan to guide future development and redevelopment of the Old Town South area. This area includes a vision for Old Town South (referred to in the OTCP as the Recreation and Cultural Campus) that includes new road connections and future development potential for infrastructure, services, businesses, and amenities.

The purpose of the Old Town South project is to define suitable land use concepts and create a site design for future redevelopment of the area, while establishing a plan to implement the site design and associated land uses. This work will include the following:

1. Assessing the current state of infrastructure in the project area;
2. Developing a concept plan for redevelopment of the project area;
3. Guiding future investments that are viable and cohesive; and 
4. Enabling redevelopment of the project area to align with the site design. 

This work stems from and implements the Old Town Community Plan to continue progress towards ensuring this area is a vibrant hub for social, cultural, recreational, institutional, residential, and commercial activities. The project phases and budget allocation is detailed on page 8 of the 2023-2025 Corporate Plan. 

Due to the complex nature of this project and the variety of other initiatives taking place within the OTSR area boundary, there are differing levels of information available about the status of ongoing and future initiatives and how they will impact the overall redevelopment of the site. The map below compares what the existing site looks like, including the new Westview School and the Ecole francophone de Stony Plain, and what the area could look like with the proposed projects like the Recreation Centre and eastern roadway. The map also includes conceptual options for how the remainder of the area may be developed or used, showcasing an additional roadway connection through the site potential development along the roadways.
