PORTAGE COVE WATERFONT

C

A framework plan that responds to community aspirations to strategically link, activate and regenerate Haines’ downtown and fort neighborhoods

FRIENDS OF PORTAGE COVE FACEBOOK GROUP

Haines is a unique position, where many waterfront communities are working hard and spending millions of dollars to undo the damage caused by poor decisions made under the pressures of development, which accommodates industry, tourism, nature, and public access. The vast majority of the waterfront remains in public ownership, and Haines is in the drivers seat to make decisions about a collective vision for its future growth.

The Portage Cove Framework Plan put forth by James Corner Field Operations builds upon the 2017 Portage Cove Interpretive Trail & Park Plan by Corvus Design, public outreach and surveys, the proHNS design of the Portage Cove Trail, while fostering part of this effort in order to understand the breadth and depth of Portage Cove’s character and sense of place.
