The Eastside hub adds a library, maker space and evening classes by 2028.
Built on the former depot site in Eastside, the three-storey hub brings the neighbourhood library, a public maker space and classrooms under one roof. Local residents helped shape the plans over two rounds of public workshops last year.
The ground floor opens onto a new public square, with a children's library and a community kitchen. Upstairs, the maker space offers 3D printers, sewing machines and a small wood workshop, and adult education classes will run on weekday evenings.
Construction will run for roughly twenty months. Monthly progress updates will be posted here, and site tours for neighbours are planned once the structure is complete.
