Garceau Corner Task Force
Updated 1/23/2020
The Garceau Task Force was formed in early 2019 to study development scenarios for the city-owned Garceau Corner properties. The Task Force met six times before making a recommendation to the City Council.
City Council approved at their November 19, 2019 meeting the Task Force’s recommendation that the City consider marketing the site for a brewery/distillery/ tasting room by reusing the existing Garceau building. This will be pursued for a period of six months to generate interest and procure a buyer/user of the site for this purpose. If efforts to procure a buyer/user are unsuccessful after six months, the City should reevaluate and market the property for multiple use options including housing with green space.
