What is City Place Making?
City of Gold Coast’s corporate plan Gold Coast 2020 plans for a future, ‘inspired by lifestyle, driven by opportunity’ that promotes prosperity for the city.
City place making is a high quality implementation unit undertaking urban renewal of the city’s commercial centres, revitalising and reactivating them to become more liveable, vibrant and connected. These upgrades of business centres strongly contribute to city lifestyle and provide opportunities for small business entrepreneurs, promoting prosperity for the city.
Place making facilitates the long-term, integrated planning and development of safe, vibrant public spaces and neighbourhoods that are valued by local people and are attractive to visitors, strengthening local community and economic life.
