The geographic centre of the city, DownTown is clean, busy and attractive — a source of great community pride.

With over 400 unique and interesting stores and services DownTown represents what the City is, has been and wants to be.

It is the epitome of the urban soul and personality. It is the cultural, recreational, services, financial and retail barometer of the City.

From time eternal, the marketplace has been where people came to not only get their daily provisions but to meet neighbors, exchange news and entertain each other.

Downtowners believe that the best way to maintain the history and tradition of the area is to provide an atmosphere that encompasses differences in age, economic status and interest.

They are committed to creating an area that offers a sense of place, an enhanced pedestrian environment where people feel comfortable and enriched.

DownTown has an atmosphere where even the most seemingly mundane activities such as working, shopping, taking a walk or meeting neighbors becomes and exhilarating experience!
