FLOOR & SITE PLAN
5 Unit Commercial Space Floor Plan
1060 Railway St, Kenora Site Plan
VISION
Ever since Image One Home and Cottage acquired the property, we have wanted to develop it to have a collaboration of local businesses that engage with each other and create a unique shopping experience to Kenora. The idea of offering visitors a destination to shop, eat and participate in workshops and demonstrations would be an undertaking of our vendors.
We envision a collaboration of local businesses that can utilize each others niche services and products for cross promotion and highlights, encouraging visitors to explore all businesses within The Platform. Workshops or demonstrations are encouraged to engage with customers and keep them coming back for more and staying longer.
