Do you want to have a say in what happens to the Memorial Coliseum site? Does the community need a rollercoaster? A casino? Another sports arena?
The City is moving fast to solicit plans to redevelop Memorial Coliseum and the surrounding area, yet so far the public has not had much input into any of these plans.
Vision into Action believes that the community should have the chance to submit a concept for this site that reflects community values and priorities, honors the history of the site, and benefits as many people as possible. We are therefore developing a concept for this site which will be submitted to the City and the Portland Development Commission by January 8, 2010 as part of the formal design competition.
We need your input to create a design that reflects your values! Please join Vision into Action and the Center for Intercultural Organizing for a presentation on an initial concept and a chance to provide feedback and shape this proposal as it moves forward.
