City of Vancouver Urban Design Awards for 2016

I’ll admit it; I’m a little pissed off. Only heard about these awards and the ceremony after it was over. C’mon, City of Vancouver, would it have hurt to send an invitation to Price Tags?

Here are this year’s winners at an interactive site.

You and me both, Gord. It’d be interesting if a group like the old Community Arts Council made these awards, and solicited public opinion while they were at it.

I notice rooftop gardens to grow food are nowhere to be found. Huge opportunity missed here for future need and flexibility. Where is the programming element to these projects? All I see is Aesthetics

  I’ve only visited a few if these but be assured there are foods being raised on one residential building here.

I sincerely apologize for the lack of invite. In planning for this event I had both yourself and Franc Ducote listed as invitees, however, your email addresses and contact details were not readily available on your blogs and websites. If you could please contact me directly I can ensure you are added to any future event list.
Again my apologies for not pursuing this further,
Jane
