Proposal for Consultant Required for the Discovery Centre Program Design and Development Study for the Hamilton Public Library Board
Hamilton Public Library (HPL) is exploring the redevelopment of the former Canadian Marine Discovery Centre through the creation of a new library branch, Indigenous gathering space, cultural heritage exhibition space, café, and visitor amenities. This future multi-role facility will be located in the previously purpose-built Parks Canada interpretation centre, 77 Harbourside Way, Hamilton (formally 57 Discovery Drive) at Hamilton’s Pier 8.
