The primary purposes of the MAKE Ogden Downtown Master Plan are to increase the City’s capacity to build sustainable economic vitality going forward, and to enhance the attractiveness of downtown by increasing the number of jobs, housing options, pedestrian activity, public transportation, one-of-a-kind stores/restaurants/venues, and the overall downtown experience – all powerful economic factors that will improve the lives of residents and bolster the City’s financial health and prosperity.
The MAKE Ogden Downtown Master Plan recognizes that the Ogden we know and love was born out of Ogden’s Union Station. As such, the restoration and redevelopment of the Union Station is seen as the pinnacle of MAKE Ogden. As MAKE Ogden works to build economic sustainability, a renewed Ogden Union Station will once again be positioned as the heart of downtown.
