Arriving at Douglas Street.

This project was premised on a fundamental question. What are the elements that define our urban experience, and how can we improve upon them looking to our city's future?

Utilizing the charrette process, Cascadia worked with multiple stakeholders seeking imaginative answers to this question, while actioning our vision for improving the quality of urban environment that Douglas Street provides.
