It’s time to have your say on the NCC’S Capital Illumination Plan 2017-2027, which is scheduled to launch this year.The NCC is asking the public’s input on its newly released plan, through a questionnaire on its website, until Sunday, July 9.
The 121-page plan focuses on the downtown core of both Ottawa and Gatineau, but also extends from Metcalfe to the Canadian Museum of Nature, on the Ottawa side.
The plan aims to improve the “nighttime beauty of the Capital” by doing a better job of lighting iconic buildings and monuments on both sides of the river, including the Parliament buildings and Canadian Museum of History, while also reducing energy use.
