How to increase public visibility of the port and utilisation of the waterfront?
Innovative architectural projects can play a crucial role in increasing public visibility of the port. The Cogeco amphitheatre, situated on the site of a former paper factory at the confluence of the Saint Lawrence and the Saint-Maurice rivers, offers a unique cultural experience that combines natural surroundings with intricate design. Its iconic red roof and expansive seating capacity contribute to its status as an urban landmark, attracting visitors and increasing public visibility of the port area. Hosting exclusive shows by renowned performers like Cirque du Soleil further enhances the venue’s appeal and draws attention to the waterfront location.
This good practice also includes objective 6.5 (Organising temporary or permanent cultural events in port areas) of the AIVP’s 2030 Agenda.
