Now, George Town Conservation and Development Corporation Sdn Bhd is working on an east seafront masterplan that will link it to the north. Chew said a request for proposal had been called for the godowns last year but PPC was not satisfied with what had been received. It is learnt that the east seafront masterplan by GTCDC is aimed at making the whole seafront more pedestrian-friendly with an integrated transportation system.

Under the project, Dewan Sri Pinang will be rejuvenated and the whole promenade turned into a green, landscaped public space for pedestrians and cyclists. The overall moat around the fort is expected to be completed by next year while the existing car park and food court will be shifted to make way for it.
