The provided map illustrates the current layout of the civic center and its projected future developments.
Overall, the proposed changes signify a significant enhancement in the area’s functionality, introducing various amenities and shifting existing structures to optimize space usage.
Presently, the civic center, particularly along North Avenue, features two car parks flanking a central cinema. In the lower section along Victoria Avenue, essential civic and commercial facilities are arranged sequentially, including an exhibition space, council offices, a town hall, a shopping center, and a library. This configuration highlights a balance between recreational and essential services.
The envisioned layout transforms the civic center into a more vibrant and multifunctional space. Along North Avenue, one of the car parks will be replaced by a café, while the cinema retains its central position. The second car park is to be supplanted by a hotel and restaurant, enhancing hospitality options. Meanwhile, along Victoria Avenue, the arrangement will consist of the council offices, an underground library, and car park, followed by the town hall, exhibition area, and shopping center. This redevelopment focuses on maximizing the available space while upgrading urban amenities.
