Article about a downtown redevelopment proposal, not properly referenced as passing Wikipedia inclusion criteria. Things like this might be valid article topics if they're well-referenced, but are not "inherently" notable just because they exist -- but except for one "article" (really just a reprint of a press release) in Canadian Architect magazine, this is otherwise referenced entirely to primary sources that are not support for notability at all, such as content self-published by the city and content self-published by the Ontario Association of Architects.
And since we already have articles about Tom Davies Square, the Art Gallery of Sudbury and the Sudbury Arena — basically every noteworthy building involved here — those can already cover off virtually any content we would actually need about this. Bearcat (talk) 00:41, 16 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: a master plan is never notable in itself - but its accomplishments might be notable. Therefore, any notable redevelopment that may come from the master plan should be incorporated in the history section of Greater Sudbury once it has been completed and reported on in secondary reliable sources. -- P 1 9 9 ✉ 16:13, 22 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
