Community Commitment Plan

Overview

Our vision for ICE District is to create a space downtown to gather, to live, work and play while enjoying some of the best sports and entertainment in the world. We are always working to ensure being a resident, tenant or neighbour of ICE District is a positive and beneficial experience and we will continue to collaborate with the community as ICE District continues to develop.
