The MacBain Community Centre is a multi-stakeholder civic project that combines several community programs under one roof. A central lobby, with reception and snack bar, provides common access and views to several key building areas: the public library, gymnasium and swimming pools. The YMCA of Niagara operates the gymnasium, courts, fitness and aquatic centre for the City of Niagara Falls Department of Parks, Recreation and Culture. Multi-purpose facilities for community meeting and wellness functions are shared with Heart Niagara, Big Brothers and Big Sisters of Niagara and the Coronation 50+ Seniors Centre. Also accessible from the lobby is a state-of-the-art branch of the Niagara Falls Public Library.

Built on a highly visible landfill area at the corner of Montrose and McLeod Road in Niagara Falls, the rejuvenated site now features re-naturalized areas, parkland, walking trails, children’s playground and skateboard park. This project was completed in joint venture with Chapman Murray Architects of Niagara Falls.........more
