New life to Queen’s Wharf

Discover Charlottetown, in partnership with the Charlottetown Area Development Corporation (CADC), unveiled a vibrant new placemaking project at Queen’s Wharf this summer. 

This initiative brings nearly 50 colourful chairs, planters, and pergolas to the Charlottetown waterfront, adding comfort, beauty, and personality to the area. 

Queen’s Wharf is part of the designated waterfront walk. A number of years ago, Downtown Charlottetown Inc. began the Big Red Number tradition and added red chairs and the love locks. This new addition builds on that momentum and creates a photogenic setting that will inspire social sharing and pride of place.

CADC played a key role in bringing this vision to life, helping to transform an underused space into a welcoming waterfront destination.

The furniture will remain in place year-round, inviting people to connect with the waterfront in every season.
