'Joni Mitchell Promenade' pitched for Saskatoon riverfront

A Saskatoon city councillor is suggesting a prominent walkway at the River Landing development to be named after iconic Canadian folk singer Joni Mitchell.

The "Joni Mitchell Promenade" would stretch along Spadina Crescent East from the corner with 3rd Avenue (where an office tower is currently under construction) to the corner with 2nd Avenue (near the Remai Modern Art Museum and the still-under-construction condo and hotel complex). 

The idea comes from councillor Ann Iwanchuk, on behalf of Mayor Charlie Clark. They're also calling for signs and a plaque.

Councillors are scheduled to hear about it at city hall on Monday afternoon.

• Check out the view from the 13th floor of the River Landing condo tower

• Demand for primo office space bolstering 2 (maybe 3) big new Saskatoon towers
