The public is encouraged to provide their thoughts on a name for the public space at Market Slip.
With site preparations well underway, a reimagined waterfront coming to Saint John.
Now, the City’s Civic Commemoration Committee is inviting residents to help select a name for the soon-to-be public gathering space at Market Slip.
The area will have new buildings, an extension of Harbour Passage, and infrastructure including a skating oval, four-season patios, and a stage for concerts.
The public is encouraged to submit name recommendations for this space using the following criteria:
- Recognizes a person, event, or group of people who have demonstrated exceptional service to the residents of the region
- Significance to the history and/or culture of the area
- Flora and/or fauna of the area
- Geographical or topographical features
- Must be original and not duplicates of other spaces or street names in the region
- Must not be offensive to a person or group of people
- Must not include parody, slang, inappropriate humour, or double meanings
- Names will be evaluated by staff based on appropriateness, cultural and historical significance, diversity, originality, and relation to the design elements.
Feedback will be collected until Friday, August 26, 2022.
