Winnipeg will not spend $7 million to subsidize a downtown water park after an Alberta hotel chain withdrew its proposal.
This morning, Coun. Justin Swandel (St. Norbert) confirmed that hotel chain Canalta has decided not to move ahead on a plan to build a 50,000-square-foot water park, hotel and parkade on city-owned land at The Forks.

Swandel said Canalta sent a letter to city administration late Friday stating that the hotelier has concluded that "city council is not interested in moving forward with a water park, hotel and parking structure at this time."

Canalta's letter said the company selected the downtown location believing it was the only viable spot for a water park that met the city's criteria.

"Council passed a motion that requires significant additional cost over and above what we have already incurred without knowing if any design we propose might be approved," the letter said.

Initially, Canalta wanted to build a hotel and water park on a city-owned parking lot known as Parcel Four, which is adjacent to the Canadian Museum for Human Rights. Councillors were inundated with negative feedback from constituents, who said The Forks isn't the place for a water park and were worried about whether the design would fit in with the area.

The company is best known for its rural hotels in Alberta and Saskatchewan and has not built in a larger urban centre. The plan called for Canalta to purchase the land from the city for $6 million and receive a $7-million grant in exchange for $700,000 worth of admission credits every year for the next 25 years.

Council voted to delay the project to get more specifics on Canalta's site and design plans. Some councillors who supported Canalta's proposal said the move could kill the deal.
Swandel said it would have cost Canalta hundreds of thousands of dollars to come back to council with the requested design information.

不会啊,那个是室内水上乐园啦,全年都可以玩,水怎么会凉,我晕,有水温控制的好不好

建个水上乐园比什么人权博物馆好多了

其实主要是地点不好,市长利益太大了

换到 kenaston 这边来吧
