Conclusion:
In conclusion, the home for Streetcar No. 351 will be the Celestial Beacon site located at the foot of Askin in Assumption Park North on the waterfront. The design of the building blends seamlessly into the landscape taking full advantage of the topography of the site and satisfies the design principles of the CRIP. The gallery space that tells the story of the Streetcar, green roof, viewing platform, concession, large terrace, bike rental facility, TWEPI presence and public washrooms will transform this park into a destination on the waterfront. The public will be able to visit and enjoy a beverage or a bite to eat while enjoying a beautiful uninterrupted view of the riverfront skyline. Without the Streetcar element to the project, the project would not qualify for grant funding from the CCSF and the City would bare all of the cost to complete the work. There is also no alternative grant currently available which could be pursued for the entire project with or without the Streetcar.
