In case you missed it, the Downtown Reimagined Project has officially reached a milestone years in the making. The official Groundbreaking Ceremony on June 22 marked the formal start of construction in Grimsby's downtown core, a proud moment that brought together residents, businesses, Town staff, and project partners. 

The Town of Grimsby's Canada Day celebrations will take place at Coronation Park this year, rather than the Grimsby Museum grounds, due to ongoing construction activities at the Museum site.

The Town of Grimsby officially marked the beginning of Phase 1 of Downtown Reimagined today as work commenced on a critical water infrastructure renewal project, supported by a $1.9 million investment from the federal and provincial governments through the Green Infrastructure Stream of the Investing in Canada Infrastructure Program (ICIP). The Government of Canada provided $1.05 million for the project, and the Government of Ontario provided nearly $875,000.

Construction mobilization for Downtown Reimagined is set for the week of June 22. This week, the project team updated the Town Council on project readiness, the community came out for Meet the Machines at the Grimsby Farmers' Market, and the full project staging plan is now available. Active construction on Elm Street is set to begin the week of July 6. 

The Town of Grimsby is pleased to announce the receipt of $36,223.56 in funding from the Province of Ontario through the Fire Protection Grant program in support of the Town’s Firefighter Cancer Prevention Program.

This investment will directly support the purchase of additional firefighter personal protective equipment (PPE), helping to enhance firefighter health, safety, and long-term well-being.

It’s an exciting and important week for the Town of Grimsby and the Downtown Reimagined Project! As we continue building momentum, we’re thrilled to introduce the project’s new brand and dedicated social media channels, making it easier for residents, businesses, and stakeholders to stay informed, engaged and connected every step of the way.
