Recommendation 6: Federal Support for the 1 Port Street East Proposed Marina Project
Mississauga is pursuing a transformative over $150-million waterfront revitalization at 1 Port Street East in Port Credit. With the anticipated environmental assessment approval by the Province and moving to detailed design, the City requests federal capital funding to deliver this project.
The 1 Port Street East Proposed Marina is the cornerstone of the Inspiration Port Credit Master Plan. It will establish a full-service public marina preserving Port Credit's working waterfront identity while modernizing infrastructure, add 4.45 acres of new waterfront parkland and public promenade, and serve as the anchoring public amenity unlocking mixed-use housing development and connecting major growth corridors across the Greater Toronto Area.
We ask the federal government to designate the 1 Port Street East marina as a priority for waterfront infrastructure funding, commit capital support through an appropriate federal program to enable delivery of this project, and establish a tri-government funding partnership consistent with the Toronto Waterfront Revitalization Initiative model. Early engagement with City staff on project phasing and funding structures will ensure alignment with federal requirements.
