The city of Victoria is looking at different options as they try to come up with a better way to use ship point in downtown Victoria.
One of the ideas is adding a giant staircase to the area where Courtney Street meets Wharf Street. There is a nine-metre drop from Wharf street to the lower ship point area, which will either need stairs or a terrace system. You can see design ideas on the city of Victoria web site.
The city is hosting two open houses at Ship Point to show off a draft design to the public, which will eventually serve as the basis for the Ship Point Master Plan.
The first will take place this Saturday from 11:30 am to 2 pm, while the second will take place Monday from 4:30 pm to 7 pm.
In September, plans will be presented to council including how much the project will cost
