  Portage Place pitch seeks to raise downtown for its residents

  If he’s said it once, Mark Chipman has said it a thousand times. The co-owner of the Winnipeg Jets and downtown arena in which the NHL team resides has always maintained that buildings, on their own, will never fix all of the problems that exist in the core of the city. They can make a positive contribution, move the downtown closer to a critical mass of density and activity, but they are not a cure-all, magic bullet or even a catalyst. So, it was hardly surprising Chipman was once again stressing that message Friday, when he unveiled his boldest and riskiest downtown gesture to date: a $500-million reimagining of Portage Place mall into a multi-use development the likes of which this city has never seen.
