Planning & Landscape & your Evergreen Community Association

PROGRAM

2020 will be known as the year in which everything changed for our world. Just over a year ago, the Corona virus was soon to become known as the Covid-19 global pandemic. All aspects of life have been transformed - the way we live, work, learn and perhaps most importantly, how we connect.

Phrases such as 'physical distancing' and 'stay home, save lives' have become common place. And, yet, in these challenging times we must find ways to come together - even if only virtually for this time.

And, that's what this University of Calgary School of Architecture Planning & Landscape program of study is all about - to engage in a new type of conversation with citizens and consider what it means now, in this day and age, to build community. With more people being connected than ever before we've considered the types of spaces that might be implemented to enhance our quality of life!

Since the inception of this studio we have worked towards understanding several perspectives and, in the pages that follow, seek to provide a professional planning perspective that makes sense of it all. We trust that we've accomplished this goal!
