He can tell you the story of Edmonton’s historical buildings, including those that have faded into history. Join him for a pleasant walk downtown, discussing the interplay between historical resources and recent investment on and below the streets in Edmonton’s downtown.

Join The City Plan Story Walks, experience planning up close
April 30, 2019

The City Plan team invites Edmontonians to take a walk (and ride a bike) to learn how the plan and its five Big City Moves will help shape Edmonton as it grows to a community of two million people.

Join us for one of five walks that will share examples of the goals contained in the Big City Moves:

Greener As We Grow - see buildings and areas that help make Edmonton a more sustainable city
A Community of Communities - ride a bike through the river valley, downtown and Garneau to learn about active transportation and community connections
Catalyze and Converge - listen to the ramblings of a Heritage Planner on downtown heritage, investment and urban design
Inclusive and Compassionate - nightwalk through Strathcona and learn how Recover, Edmonton’s Urban Wellness Plan, helps Edmonton become a more inclusive and compassionate city
A Rebuildable City - hang out with the Zoning Bylaw Renewal team and see examples of building reuse and learn how zoning can reignite the life of a neighbourhood

The walks begin May 3 and take place downtown, 124 Street and Strathcona. Pre-registration is not required to participate in the walks. The Community of Communities bike ride is on June 15 and Eventbrite pre-registration is required for this event.
