Let's work together and create cities bursting with life

Our public place projects

These groundbreaking projects show what’s possible in public spaces. Working with local communities and experts across Canada, we’ve transformed these spaces into irresistible, accessible, climate-ready places where people and nature can thrive side by side. Each unique project illustrates that human activity doesn’t have to mean environmental destruction and that great places impact communities today and for generations to come.

The magic of public places

Green, climate-ready public spaces are essential for the health of people and our planet.

When public spaces are designed with nature at their core, they become the roots of a strong community. Did you know they’re proven to increase:

  • People’s physical and mental wellbeing
  • Social cohesion within communities
  • A city’s resilience to natural disasters
  • The biodiversity of urban ecosystems

Now, more than ever, these places are critical to the health and wellbeing of people and our planet as we strive for a better world for generations to come.
