Gondola Over the North Saskatchewan


Submitted by: Gary and Amber Poliquin

Proposal Idea

To have a gondola connecting downtown with Old Strathcona

What will you build?

Three gondola stations in the city will provide an efficient transportation method to connect two pedestrian centres as well as provide a spectacular view of our North Saskatchewan River Valley from up above.

Where will you build it?

The stations would be located at the Shaw Conference Centre, one near RE/MAX Field, and one at the parking lot across from the Old Strathcona Farmers’ Market.

How does your idea define or embody Edmonton?

The idea shows Edmonton as a proud northern city that is willing to take chances, connecting the fabric of our city with lines through the air.
