The City Crossing Winnipeg International Design Competition/2004 is an open single-stage multidisciplinary design competition initiated by The City of Winnipeg. The site for City Crossing is a four-block area defined by the intersection of Portage Avenue and Main Street.

(Portage Avenue and Main Street are referred to in the Brief as Portage and  Main.) The site includes the intersection at ground level as well as the concourse level below grade.

The objectives of the competition are to meld public and private interests, leading to a public/private partnership for the redevelopment of the site and its adjacent areas. Key redevelopment issues include enhancing pedestrian and vehicular connections within the downtown, pedestrian access to the buildings and concourse, and reinforcing an appreciation of the intersection's role as a historic, cultural and commercial centre in the city.

City Crossing is sponsored by The City of Winnipeg and supported by the owners at the buildings at the corners of this important intersection: The Richardson Building, The Bank of Montreal, TD Centre, MTS, The Commodity Exchange Tower and The City of Winnipeg. The competition is also supported by the Winnipeg Foundation and the following organizations: Manitoba Association of Architects (MAA); Manitoba Association of Landscape Architects (MALA); Manitoba Professional Planners Institute (MPPI); Downtown Winnipeg Business Improvement Zone (BIZ); Forks North Portage Partnership (FNPP).

The City, with the support of the neighbouring property owners intends to attempt to build the winning design for an anticipated construction budget up to $10 million.

The Competition Brief provides general objectives and design goals for the Design Competition. A Technical Advisory Team Opinion Report (representing public interests) and a Stakeholder Advisory Team Opinion Report (representing private interests) are also provided to inform, guide and provide recommendations to the competitors and Jury regarding the redevelopment of this site.

The conditions of this Competition Brief have been determined to comply with the Committee of Canadian Architectural Councils, Document Five entitled Canadian Rules for the Conduct of Architectural Competitions by the Interprovincial Competition Committee.

All contestants must include a licensed architect on their team. Teams are urged to provide an interdisciplinary approach including artists, landscape architects, urban designers, transportation planners and interior designers.
