Your Future Home: Creating the New Vancouver<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

WHEN: Jan. 21-May 15, 2016
\nWHERE: Museum of Vancouver – 1100 Chestnut Street, Vancouver, BC<\/p>\n

From the Museum of Vancouver (MOV), in partnership with the Vancouver Urbanarium Society, comes a provocative and timely exploration of the future of Vancouver. In response to mounting concern about a rapidly changing region, Your Future Home: Creating the New Vancouver<\/em>, on display at MOV from January 21 through May 15, 2016<\/em>, will immerse visitors in an experience that spotlights 20 visions for tomorrow\u2019s city, while focusing on four topical issues: housing affordability, residential density, ease of transportation, and quality of public space.<\/p>\n

\u201cVancouver is a city in flux, undergoing massive growth and redevelopment. With as many as three homes demolished each day, often to make room for denser living, we are experiencing a watershed moment in the history of the region,\u201d says Gregory Dreicer, MOV Director of Curatorial and Engagement. \u201cWith everyone already talking about Vancouver\u2019s sky-high housing prices, we want to shift the conversation from real estate to the state of the city. Your Future Home launches from a \u2018presentation centre\u2019 into an \u2018urban grid,\u2019 in which some of Vancouver\u2019s most creative minds grapple with the city\u2019s thorniest issues. We want to bring more people into debates about what their city might become.\u201d<\/p>\n

More than 20 of Vancouver\u2019s leading architects, urban planners, and visionaries will create multimedia scenarios that ask visitors to stop and rethink what they want in their hometown. These scenarios will include a model for a 2,500-foot vertical city that will have visitors challenging customary notions of scale; a strategy for a post-disaster transportation network that caters to bicycles; and a proposal for a network of floating barge parks.<\/p>\n

Your Future Home will also contain a fascinating series of case studies that will highlight the role that individuals and communities play in building Vancouver. Stories will speak to the Arbutus Lands redevelopment, upcoming decisions that may transform places like Granville Island, and changes to how we heat buildings downtown.<\/p>\n

Visitors of all ages will discover astonishing facts about the unceasing change that has resulted in today\u2019s Vancouver\u2014a city with fewer native residents than any other in North America. Your Future Home will feature a mock 1,400-square-foot \u2018sales centre,\u2019 including infographics, animations, dramatic models, panoramic images relating to the downtown core\u2014and the until-now suburban neighbourhoods that make up 95 per cent of the city. People will be encouraged to discuss the exhibition\u2019s future scenarios, give feedback, and propose their own ideas for the homes for sale in Southeast Edmonton<\/span><\/a>.<\/p>\n

Throughout the duration of the exhibition, Vancouverites will be invited to participate in a number of complementary activities, including walking tours, discussions, social events with drinks, and workshops developed to spark conversation about the environments in which we live. A series of hard-hitting debates will focus on public transportation, taxation of vacant properties, affordable housing solutions, and more.<\/p>\n
