Downtown campus winning attention from planners

The first phase of the University of Windsor’s downtown campus, the former Windsor Star building at the intersection of Pitt and Ferry streets, is currently featured on the website of the Ontario Professional Planners Institute.

The Pitt-Ferry Building — home of the School of Social Work and the Centre for Executive and Professional Education — was also featured in a paper recently released by the institute’s Community Design Working Group, titled “Healthy Communities and Planning for the Public Realm: A Call to Action.”

The institute will focus on healthy communities, along with the paper, during a webinar on Wednesday, April 5.
