City of Vancouver —Georgia and Dunsmuir Viaducts Study

Open design competitions are a widely used method to develop guiding visions and eventually master plans for city sites prime for redevelopment. Here's the approach taken by the City of Vancouver asking the general public and architect and planning firms around the world for innovative ideas about what to do with the Viaducts and surrounding areas of the downtown eastern core.

re:CONNECT invited the citizens of Vancouver, to join with local and international designers to ignite discussion and dream new possibilities for the future of the Viaducts and the City's broader Eastern Core. Design ideas were received and citizens were invited to vote and comment on your favourite ideas for this area of the City.  More at: The Georgia and Dunsmuir Viaducts Study | City of Vancouver and The Sidewalk Ballet: City of Vancouver Design Competition: Viaducts & Eastern Core
