Connected, inclusive, sustainable. A comfortable space to walk, to sit or just ‘to be’. A place to observe and socialise, yet a driver of our economy and society that interacts with our natural environment. A space for trees and trade, birdsong and city sounds.
In Momentum City our public spaces…
include our streets, squares and pockets of green
support us to lead active, healthy lives and help us reduce society’s health challenges
are climate resilient
form part of our shared culture and identity
are comfortable for everyone who wants to use them
We take inspiration from:
Westminster’s ‘Green Spine’
For its non-linear, meandering paths to encourage ‘exploration’ through the area
Our historical built heritage
In areas of the world where the climate has long been challenging
Our streets
80% of public realm is made up of ‘the street outside our house’
Stations hivernales, Montreal
For its ‘fairy tale’ activation of public spaces during Montreal’s winter
