Central Area Design Study

1.4 THE STUDYAREA

The study area is generally bounded by Concession and 3rd Streets to the north, Tillson Avenue, Bloomers Street, and John Pound Road to the east, the Tillsonburg Golf and Country Club to the south, and Kinsmen Participark and its associated ravine system to the west. The study area, which includes the Central Business District as well as adjacent Entrepreneurial Districts, is the most diverse area of the Town with a mix of retail, office, institutional, employment, and residential uses. The Central Business District, centred on Broadway Street, is a significant destination with a variety of retail and restaurants that attract residents and visitors. It contains many cultural and natural amenities including the Public Library, the Station Arts Centre, the Farmer’s Market, and branches of the local ravine system. The Central Area is also close to several other significant cultural and natural amenities, including the Livingston Centre and Fanshawe College satellite campus, Lake Lisgar, and the Tillsonburg Golf and Country Club.

The block housing Coffee Culture, along the west side of Broadway Street, south of Brock Street, represents a significant inventory of valuable heritage buildings.
