Downtown Plan 


Ontario’s Downtown covers 12 blocks along Euclid Boulevard. In 1983, the City adopted the Center City Redevelopment Project area to encourage development of a high intensity, multiuse central business district and surrounding neighborhoods that maximize the productivity of commercial areas and housing opportunities. The $200 million Town Center Square project will provide a mix of housing, educational, retail, office, and government uses that will stimulate the renewal of Downtown. Although the General Plan redesignates a majority of the area for new housing and mixed uses, a comprehensive planning process is necessary to ensure the sensitive integration of new housing, commercial uses, open space, pedestrian paths, and transportation into the fabric of Downtown.
