A Manifesto on Public Space Policy

The future of Vancouver's Public Realm: Nine ways to enhance the city's public spaces

Manifesto coverVancouver's municipal election takes place on Saturday, November 15, 2008.  Help us to make sure that the city's public spaces are part of the platforms that shapes our urban environment over the next three years.

The VPSN's Manifesto on Public Space Policy is intended to be read and used by policy-makers, aspirants to political office, city staff, representatives of private and non-profit sectors, and residents and citizens at large.  In short: everyone who has a stake in the design and use of our urban landscape.
