34 Vancouverism is a Process based on Principles It is not a product

35 First thing The Genesis of the Vancouver High Rise Debunking the Hong Kong Myth

36 It was born in the The West End

37 The West End

38 The West End TIMELINE 1956 Zoning changes A forest of towers community worked to devise new tools to maintain and improve livability Present Urban design lessons refined and applied to new districts. Today 40,000 people live in one sq mile

39 The West End Lessons Recognize and appreciate what you have Maintain and improve what works best Celebrate the diversity that sometimes occurs by happenstance

40 The West End Lessons Planting strip + street trees Light + air eyes on street Cars buffer sidewalks Small building footprint Narrow street width Minimal disruption or curb cuts Safe and attractive sidewalks Set backs define semi-private, and public spaces

41 The 10 principles of the Vancouver Urban Development Tool Kit (We learned from the West End)

42 1. Engage the Community Engage stakeholders to create a vision of community and establish the amenities needed The evolution of an ongoing re-iterative community process Address changing issues and priorities

43 2. Optimize Public Assets High Quality Public Realm Affordable Housing Open Space and Parkland Schools Daycare and Community Centers Cultural Centers and Museums

44 3. Improve Connectivity Optimize existing infrastructure Provide a range of high quality transit choices Restore or improve public access to key civic attributes Ensure neighborhood connectivity Traffic Calming

45 4. Establish three scales of urban form CITY SCALE NEIGHBOURHOOD/DISTRICT SCALE PEDESTRIAN SCALE

46 5. Establish Street Types and Character Ensure the restoration & extension of a High Street for each district. Extend street grids where possible

47 6. Put Pedestrians First Urban design defines the engagement between the pedestrian and other modes of transportation.

48 7. Create a safe secure public realm A well designed public realm provides A sense of safety A sense of belonging A sense of coherence

49 8. Develop Innovative Performance-based codes Manipulate a variety of densities to: achieve the desired building form 1.0 FSR meet community goals and objectives support public realm allows for the flexibility to respond to market demands 2.4 FSR Provide separation between towers

50 9. Focus on the first 10 metres

56 10. Create a Comprehensive Plan Provides certainty and protects investment for both community and developers Provides continuity and cohesiveness of public realm and private spaces Encourages developers and property owners to think beyond their property lines to achieve mutual benefit Develops a collaborative, trusting between community, city, and city builders. Ensures access for all

65 Single family zoning

66 How can Vancouver Learn from Vancouver?

67 Vancouver 2.0 How do we learn from our success in creating a walkable, livable, connected downtown core and apply it to the rest of Vancouver s less-dense urban fabric?

68 Creating density that is valued How do you create a setting where density and height are not seen as a bad thing? How do you make it so that not every development is a battle ground between developers and the surrounding community? Or how do you move from spot rezonings back to Vancouver s tradition of comprehensive rezonings.
